How to reinstall DirectX in Windows 10
DirectX is a set of tools for enhancing different aspects of multimedia performance, including video playback, graphics, and sound. It may cause problems to some users if it becomes corrupted.
If you have already tried troubleshooting your GPU and other hardware and software, then the next phase would be to reinstall DirectX on your Windows 10 PC. This article discusses how you can fix the software to get it to work again, without having to perform a fresh installation of your OS.
Currently, the latest version for DirectX is 12. However, it is not necessary that your computer might have the same version as it depends upon your hardware support as well.
