Epic Games Launcher Installation Error with Directx

found a way to fix DirectX so one can use the original EpicInstaller

  1. Start Menu → type regedit
  2. go to
    Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectX
  3. double click Version
  4. change “Value data” to 4.08.00.0904
  5. do the same for
    Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\DirectX

the EpicInstaller should work now, or after a restart
