Hi,

Which game are you trying to install?

Download and run the DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer on your computer and then try to start the game.

Here’s the download link:

    I clicked this link and it sent me to the Windows 10 downloader. Do I need to download this to get d3dx9_43.dll? I'm trying to play The Elder Scrolls Online and I'm having this same problem.

    Hello,

    So, I tried to enter the link you gave, but it told me to upgrade my Windows to Windows 10. I just want to play my game, what should I do?

    Here, I have a link that works. I download World of tanks hassle-free after I installed the link. I hope this has helped you!
