DirectX 9 games keep crashing
Hi all, i need some help. Basically all games and applications running with DirectX 9 keep crashing. The problem is only with DirectX 9, i tried some games that let you choose between DirectX 9 and other DirectX and they work fine with the other versions. I tried reinstalling the video drivers and all the redistribuitable packages, the dxdiag shows no errors too. I don't have any software like rivatuner Thanks for any help

ALL games that runs with directx 9 keep crashing at launch. (I tried various, Terraria, Shadowrun, Dishonored, Pillars of Eternity, Dead Space, etc)

Some do, i tried installing it with no success
i just played 'dead space' (via origin client, NOT steam) on my potato pc: i3-530 + rx 580 8GB + 8GB ram + hdd

might be good to reinstall directx 9.0c june 2010 redistributable, if not done yet

download the web/runtime installer from microsoft :
https://www.microsoft.com/en-ph/download/details.aspx?id=8109
https://www.microsoft.com/en-ph/download/details.aspx?id=35

or mirror download from (full offline installer) :
