[RESOLVED] d3dcompiler_43.dll \ d3dx9_43.DLL Missing From Your Computer

Post by mhstone »

I have a fresh install of Win 10 and a fresh install of P3D v4. When I try to run the P3D exe, I get about three different notices that the code execution can not proceed because d3dx9_43.dll (and other d3dx9 related stuff) was not found. All of the d3dx9_43 files are present as .cab files in my Windows/SysWOW64 folder. Any ideas on what is happening here?

Thanks, that did the trick. I had tried the Direct X repair earlier, but didn't realize my antivirus was blocking it. All good now. Thanks again!
