HI! 
I recently upgraded my gaming PC from Win 10 to Win 11 N version 22H2 (build 22621.1265) with a full wipe of previous data. I'm a sim-driver enthusiast, so I downloaded Assetto Corsa Competizione from my Steam account. When I tried to launch the game, I got a message stating that the Direct X Runtime installation was missing.
To solve this problem I downloaded the suite from Microsoft but unfortunately it returns me the infamous DXerror.log and directx.log message.
After that I've trying almost every single solution finded on web, including:
Nothing of the above actions worth the solution of the problem. Reading the DXerror.log the problem is:
"module: dxupdate(Mar 30 2011), file: dxupdate.cpp, line: 2234, function: RegisterDLL
Failed API: LoadLibraryEx()
Error: (193) - %1 is not a valid Win32 application.
Unable to load C:\Windows\system32\xactengine2_0.dll."
After that I restore the .dll file, both the 32 and 64 bit but nothing. Reading online I found that this dll needs to register. So I have tryied to do so with the regsvr32 command but Windows find this dll "not compatible" with this version.
Just for the context I solved the problem totally random, adding two dlls to the installation folder of the game: mfplat and resampledmo. Despite that, is there anything I can still do to correctly install that damn Runtime? I'm afraid I'll have problems installing other games in the future, having to add dlls until I find the solution.
Thanks and sorry for my poor english, I'm from Italy!!

- Change the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key (both "Installed version" and "Version")
- Net Framework repair tool
- Switch the services named "Performance log and alerts" from manual to automatic
- Switch the services named "Virtual Disc" from manual to automatic
- Install Media Feature Pack
- Install Graphic Feature from "Optional features"
- Enable Windows functionality like Net.Framework 3.5 and DirectPlay
- Run a scan from CMD with sfc / scannow and restrore health
- Install all the Vc Redist c++ since 2005
- Dowload the offline version of Runtime, place it in a C: folder and try to install it having the same problem. Until run the program in compatibility mode (XP Service Pack 3) and receive none error message. Despite this I have the feeling that nothing has changed. I can tell from the launch of Assetto Corsa, so the game tries to install Direct X material every time for a few seconds to be really ready
