Hello!
I hope I chose the right topic.
I just reinstalled my OS ( Windows 10 Pro ) and after installing Apex Legends it gave me an error while trying to launch the game. I searched on the Internet and I found out I have to download by myself all of these : Visual C++ Redistributable 2015-2019 and DirectX.
The problem seemed strange to me at first but it made sense after I realized that the other times I installed Apex I already had those components automatically installed by Steam games. This time I installed Apex first.
So my questions are :
1) What's the difference between DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer and DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010) ?
2) Do they have anything in common ? Is one of them included in the other one ?
3) How can I find out if I already installed them ? If I run their installer again, will it tell me that it's already installed and I can only repair DirectX ?
4) If I type "dxdiag" in the Run Box, I can see I already have DirectX 12 (it's obvious because it comes with Windows 10). So these 2 types of DirectX are something in addition, like it says on the official site : "Note that this package does not modify the DirectX Runtime installed on your Windows OS in any way. ", am I right ?
5) Should I install both of them ?
Thank you for your time and I'm sorry if I made any grammatical mistake.
