In Response To: Dumb question about Direct X (Freeatlast!)

I'm not familiar with directX. I would guess that it is a system file that is needed to play games or use certain programs created with it.

I'm not sure if it comes with the operating system. But if the program you are using uses it, it would be installed with the program.

If your program is saying that it can't find this component, it could be that it is missing or corrupted for some reason. If so, reinstall the program.
