system32/dinput8.dll

[ferr85]

Unable to launch the game with error message - untrusted system file (c/windows/system32/dinput8.dll). Is there anyone having same issue? Any idea how to fix this issue?

I've been spending all day trying to resolve my own issue, but I stumbled across your thread and thought I'd help. A dll is a Dynamic Link Library and is used for sort of plugin functionality, specifically, the one you mentioned is a DirectX dll that handles input devices like joysticks and controllers.

It's safe, but the problem is that developers can package altered dlls with their software that will replace the standard dll that Microsoft provides, usually these are unsigned by Microsoft, and hence the untrusted system file issue. It could also be a corrupt system file which is flagged by EAC, hence your error.

Boot cmd as admin and run this command "sfc /scannow" just remove the quotation marks. It will scan all protected system files and then replace corrupt ones with a cached copy. If you end the process with something like "didn't find any integrity violations", then the issue lies elsewhere.

Reinstall DX9 usually fixes missing DLL files

you have to backup your games before you deinstall steam so you can restore the games from the backupfiles
