    How do I install directx 9c for windows 11?


    I have an old app that needs to have directx 9c support. I went to the Micorsoft download site and downloaded the run time file they recommended, but that file contains a bunch of .tmp and .tmp.node files with no identifying information, so I have no idea which of them pertains to directx 9c. Is there an easier way to get directx 9c installed?

    :)

    Directx 9c games

    Ive been trying to compile a list of games which require or can use 9c features but my list is pretty limited. HDR using a 9b path dont count. So that rules out the hl2 series/stalker etc.

    So far i have

    Rainbow Six: Vegas
    Colin Mcrae: DiRT
    Splinter Cell: Double Agent
    Spiderman 3
    MOH: Airborne
    Kane and Lynch Dead men
    Gears of War
    Company of Heroes
    Call of Juarez
    Flight Simulator X
    Farcry
    Hellgate London
    Crysis
    Oblivion
    CoH

    Also, games with directx 10 capability, we will assume require 9c since theres no way to tell.

    Thanks for any help.

    Can't buy DirectX 11 required Windows 10 game, have DirectX 12 installed

    Hi,

    In order to help you effectively, kindly provide us additional information.

    • What is the exact error message you're getting? Could you provide us the screenshot?
    • How did you install the DirectX 12? Was it manually, or through Windows Update?

    If you install DirectX 12 through Windows Update, then we would suggest that you perform a System Restore to take your computer back to an earlier point in time. It will not affect your personal files, but will remove apps, drivers, and updates installed
    after the restore point was made.

    After the restore, you may then install DirectX 11 through Windows Update. As there is no stand-alone update package for it.

    Let us know how it goes.
