    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.

  3. DirectX 11 Error: Minecraft Story Mode - Intel Graphics Card

    Hi,

    Sorry to know that you are getting DirectX 11 hardware error while activating
    Minecraft Story Mode game on Windows

    10. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    This error may occur if the DirectX 11 requirements are not met by the Graphics card.

    DirectX is a suite of multimedia technologies required by many Windows games. If your computer doesn't have the right version of DirectX installed (the product box should tell you which one you need), your game might not work properly.

    To install the latest version of DirectX, let's try to follow these steps, mentioned below and check, if it works:


    • Press (Windows key + R key) together.

    • Type dxdiag.exe on the RUN command Window.

    • Then, click on OK.
    Please try to refer to the Microsoft article link, mentioned below:

    How to install the latest version of DirectX:

    Note: applies to Windows 10.

    Write to us with the status of the issues experienced on the same post for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.

    Thank you.

    Windows 11 DirectX errors

    I have DirectX 12, but application requires DirectX 11

    Hello.

    I do have directX, but just not 11, i have 12. My question is why I cant run a directX 11 app with directX 12. The link sent was a link to the directX installation. Please read the question before posting the answer.

    Thanks!
