Hi!


Disclaimer, this isn't actually a question but an answer to a question has been asked before however with no answers that have solved my issue.


It seems the latest version of windows 10 won't allow me to install directx 11 using the regular installer from windows. It says "DirectX will not install because cryptographic services are enabled and file certificate is valid" however after going through all the answers on the forum and even reinstalling windows I still couldn't install direct x.


It turns out there are plenty of people out there with the same problem, and after a quick search in google, the installer from this drive link finally allowed me to install directx 11, and thus allowed me to play older games such as the total war series.


Do check it out if you're having difficulties with directx11: directx_Jun2010_redist.exe


Cheers!
