What is DirectX?
Microsoft DirectX is a toolkit which allows your Windows-based computer to run multimedia applications containing full-color graphics, video, rich audio and 3D animation.

How to Download DirectX?

  • To download DirectX, simply click on the DOWNLOAD DirectX... link corresponding to the file you wish to download. When prompted by your browser, choose the "Save" option (wording may vary) and select an appropriate destination folder.
  • Should I try the Mirrors of DirectX before reporting broken links?

  • Always try the Mirrors (EU & US MIRROR LINK) before reporting broken links. All servers are fast and reliable servers, located in the European Union & US. They are often faster than the external main download link (EXT MAIN LINK).
  • If the download doesn't start automatically, what should I do?

  • If the download doesn't start automatically, try clicking the link again. If that fails, check your internet connection or switch browsers. Sometimes, downloads are blocked due to security concerns (false positive); use alternative browsers like Firefox & Chrome to proceed.
