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 know this post is like seven years old, but since it's not locked for future posts, might as well give the issue I'm having. I'm running Windows 10 Home, with 4 GB of Ram, and a Intel Pentium N4200 at 1.1 GHz. It's a x64 based processor, and it's a 64-bit Operating system. Well, when I downloaded the file, as always, when I click on the file, it says the following:

    Error creating process

    <C:\Users\JHaki\AppData\Local\Temp\IXP000.TMP\dxwsetup.exe>. Reason: The requested operation requires elevation.

    What the heck? This literally doesn't mean anything! I was hoping that this would solve my problem so I could play Game Boy games on my laptop while I'm out, but I can't because the god darn installer won't work at all!

    This means that you need administrator permissions on the shortcut or executable (right-click on the mouse).
