Dunpy Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Jesus man,,,I swear to God I never post in forums but seriously, I have to do it now, after 4 hours of useless debugging and googling and forum reading, there you have the solution. THANK YOU so much! :) Hello! First of all, I don't know if this damages somehow the built in DirectX 12 installation of Windows 10 but I think it doesn't and don't see the reason how it would for DirectX installers do check if components of the installations need to be updated and don't replace the whole installation. Still, if you somehow damage your Windows 10 installation or hardware by doing this, I am not responsible. So, I made a clean install of Windows 10 after upgrading to it. After getting all of the drivers and other software installed, I installed Skyrim and restored my mod setup. When I tried to boot the game, it would crash instantly, before the Bethesda logo. This could be fixed by deleting the d3d9.dll binary that is required for ENBs, so it clearly was not a load order issue (as it shouldn't have been as my load order was identical to the load order on Windows 7 installation). Well, first I tried to install the injector version of the ENB. That got me through the Bethesda logo, but crashed after that.The fix that worked for me, so I could run the wrapper version of ENB was to install the DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010) from Microsofts official website. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109 There is the link for it. I haven't posted to these forums much, so I am not sure actually if we are allowed to post links, so moderators feel free to edit the post if it is against the rules and apologies for the inconvenience. D: And if the link is removed, you can find the right page (Microsoft's official website) by googling "DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010)", at the time of writing this. After following the link it gives a download for directx_Jun2010_redist.exe, which asks you for a location to unpack the files. Give it a temporary location, then find the files that were unpacked and run the DXSETUP.exe. This is what actually installs the DirectX 9 components that ENB neets to start without crashing. (Thanks for this clarification to Realfriend) As this is getting rambly, I hope that I helped at least someone. It took me 8 hours of stressful googling and not finding a solution. Somebody in the ENBseries forums had posted half a year ago that he had had some very similar crashing with a preview build of Windows 10 and had installed DirectX 9.0c to fix this. As the web installer DirectX 9.0c versions are unsupported on Windows 10, at least for me it popped an error, and those seem to come up very easily when searching for DirectX 9.0c, this information didn't solve the problem for me, put it pointed me to the right direction so credits to him, I guess. :3 Thanks for reading and have fun with Skyrim on Windows 10! :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoBeRt000HyNeS Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 When I'm doing this, what should i do with my Directx 10 file in the skyrim folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdmst Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 It didn't work for me. ENB's still won't show up in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowkey98 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Okay so I've done this exactly as instructed, I downloaded the file from the link, ran the DXSETUP as admin, let it run through everything, but my Skyrim still crashes before the splash screen and I'm really confused as to why, does anyone have any advice?

Rooker75 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I DLed the DX installer from the op's link, but I get an error when I try to run it "This app can't run on your computer". This PC is brand new. I reinstalled Skyrim literally just 3 hours ago and it runs fine otherwise. Not a single mod installed yet. Updated my graphics driver about 4 hours ago, so that should be good. I've tried with and without Fraps running, with and without the injector. Steam overlay is turned off. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooker75 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 After much googling, I found a link to a different DirectX installer and this one works fine: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displayLang=en&id=35ENB is running now, though I may end up not using it. Getting some nasty stuttering with it on. Anyway, if the OP's link doesn't work for people, this link does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arawra Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 DirectX 9 installer didn't work for me. In order to get ENB to work with SkyrimLauncer, I had to use v292 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonewax Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) well i hate to be another "didnt work for me" reply but here i am. Built a new ryzen machine and installed windows 10. All my skyrim files were on a separate drive and stupid me thought it would be easy to just fire them up. Anyway after some searching i realized i had to delete d3d9.dll and that got skyrim working. However, the enbhost wont load and i've done all the crap people have suggested. There's no way in hell im playing skyrim without an enb. I actually downgraded my enb to 292 also, no luck getting enb to load up. Any help is appreciated. **UPDATE** Ok everyone i got this working (thank god it only took me 4 hours right?) So here is what you do. Since windows 10 and d3d9 dont like each other you have the choice of deleting it which will get you into skyrim but with no enb. However you download the 2010 dx runtimes and that will fix the enb problem so you can keep d3d9 and here's how you do it. This is how you get the launcher to work if you use steam and you get the error "launcher has stopped working".Go to Steam-Steamapps-common-Skyrim-Right Click the 'Skyrim Launcher' Application-Troubleshoot compatibility-Troubleshoot program-The Program Rquires additional permissions-Follow the next pop up step with a 'yes'-Test the program.-Yes, save these settings. DO NOT RUN ANY COMPATIBILITY LIKE WIN 7/8 ETC. You also must run TESV.exe as ADMIN To fix your enb problem here is what i did. Downloaded and installed the dx2010 runtimes into a folder on my desktop. THIS DID NOT WORK FOR ME In the Skyrim folder look for DirectX10 folder and then run DXSETUP.exe Installing the files in the skyrim directory made it work for me. Hope this helps anyone in a similar situation, the thought of skyrim without enbs is cringworthy. Good luck.
