Navigate to Start Menu -> Settings -> Update & Security -> Windows Update. Check for any pending Windows 10 updates through the Settings app and install them before proceeding down to further steps and fix DirectX. Since DirectX is now being updated through Windows Updates, it should be our first go-to to fix and reinstall any corrupted DirectX files. This brings us to our first approach to fixing DirectX. However, with time, Microsoft changed their approach, and DirectX is now only updated through Windows Updates. You can read more about the process here. Previously, DirectX could be downloaded and installed right off of the internet, which used to solve so many problems encountered because of it. In the System tab, you can see the version of DirectX running on your PC at the very bottom. The DirectX Diagnostics Tool will now run. If you are curious about your version of DirectX, here is how you can check it. Another reason for not having the latest DirectX version is that there might be some corrupted files on your PC preventing it from updating. However, it is not necessary that your computer might have the same version as it depends upon your hardware support as well.
If you’re unable to run some older games on your PC despite having the latest DirectX version, it could be because a few runtime libraries from the legacy DirectX SDK are missing from your system. Install DirectX Runtime Libraries for Legacy DirectX SDK If you’re facing problems with Windows Updates, you’ll need to fix that first, or you could just move forward with the updates without using Microsoft Update.
Once installed, reboot your PC and rerun the DirectX Diagnostic Tool to check your DirectX version.If there’s a newer DirectX version available for your system, it will automatically download and install along with other updates on your system.
