  1. Legacy Components Error on DirectX 12


    Hey


    Sorry if this has been duplicated but I cant find a question with this specific issue.


    Trying to play an older game and comes up with this error message:




    After a bit of digging I found its about DirectPlay. Find a way to enable it and go to enable it under Legacy Components. DirectPlay is not specifically listed but I 'checked' the box for Legacy Components and click ok. Then comes up with this:




    Then this when I click ok:




    I Don't believe DirectPlay is installed on my Laptop. Any help would be appreciated.


    Thanks


    Kyle

  2. DirectPlay in Legacy Components

    Im trying to play Rollercoaster Tycoon 2, but I can't run the game because of missing DirectPlay. I found out that I can enable DirectPlay in Legacy Components in windows settings, and thats the solution that everyone recommends, I'm sure it works, because
    I've done that on other PC and then it worked, but all I can see in my windows settings, is empty Legacy Components list. On other PC, there was DirectPlay on this list, but I can't find it on my PC. My version of directx is 12.
