How to Check Direct X Version in Windows 10

I have recently been having problems getting games to work in Microsoft Windows 10. Finding the version of Direct X installed on my PC was key in troubleshooting the issues. Here’s how you can find the version.

1. Hold down the “Windows Key” and press “R” to bring up the Run dialog box.
2. Type “dxdiag“, then select”OK“.
3. Select “Yes” if prompted with a dialog box. The version of DirectX you are currently running will be displayed on your screen.
