What’s up guys, in this short tutorial,
I will show you how to fix the issue when you are missing a DLL file and getting an
error on Windows 11. This should be quite an easy tutorial, everything
you need will be listed in the description below. First of all, click on the first link in the
description to get to this page. This is the official Microsoft download page
for DirectX on Windows, and should be installed to your system. Click on “Download”, and the download
will start and should be done in a second. It will be located in your downloads folder,
your browser can also help you find your downloaded files. Double-click the DirectX setup installer,
and a new window will open up. Here, select that you accept the agreement,
and then deselect the “Install the Bing Bar” option and click on “Next”. It will then take some time to install the
DirectX runtime components to your system and can in a lot of cases fix the missing
DLL error on Windows 11. But make sure that you restart your PC for
the installation to take effect. In case this did not help you out, then search
for “Command Prompt” in your start menu search and hit enter. You can copy all of the used commands from
the description below. sfc /scannow
This command will scan all protected system files, and replace corrupted files with a
cached copy and should take a minute or two to complete. Next, use the command dism /online /cleanup-image
/restoreHealth This is a Dism command that runs a scan for
corruption and repairs problems that it finds with the operating system you are logged into Lastly, in case nothing helped you out, then
navigate to dll-files.com in your favorite browser. Here, simply enter the name of your DLL file
that is missing. You will find it’s name when the missing
DLL file error shows up! Enter the name here, and hit enter. This will show you search results for the
Filename, simply select the one you are missing. Select the file and make sure to download
the latest version, which is on top. The download should not take long, and make
sure to locate it in your downloads folder. To unzip the content of this file, you will
need to use some unarchiving software, such as 7-Zip or WinRAR. Again, I will leave everything you need in
the description below. Right-click the file and select to extract
all of it’s content to your desktop. I suggest leaving the DLL file on your desktop,
and then open up your file explorer. In your file explorer, click on this burger
menu and select “Options”. In your “Folder Options”, in the “View”
tab, select “Show hidden files, folders, and drives” under “Hidden files and folder”. Apply your changes, and close this window. Lastly, navigate to your C: drive, Windows,
System32. Now, copy and paste your missing DLL file
from your desktop into this System32 folder. After restarting your PC, the missing DLL
file error will be fixed. I hope this helped you out, leave a comment
if you have any questions and see you in the next one.
