Question

hi guys, i wanted to update our direct x but whenever i try to download the update it says the our direct x is already updated but when i try to open a game it says that my direct x is not up to date so i wanted to delete the direct x directly from its save location but i cant find it, is there any way for me to find specific files on my computer like where its save because when i download something i just press OK and don't change the location it saved and now i don't know where to find it, is there any program out there that can help me with this?

Answer 1

If the DirectX update says it's updated, then it is. If the game insists on update, the either it's buggy, or it requires a newer major version. Maybe if you shared what kind of windows you're using and what game you're trying to launch, it would be easier to help.

Answer 2

You can use the Search in Explorer to find any file. Make sure you click on the C: drive to start.



You can run DXDIAG to find what DirectX version you are running.

Answer 3

go to control panel then go to add remove programs you should be able to find it in there.
