So the installer isn't corrupted, and there shouldn't be anything preventing the files from extracting. You should (obviously) have access to the temp folder, so it shouldn't be a permission issue, and you should also have enough disk space.
Run the installer again, and when the first image pops (the one about DXSETUP.exe), see if that temp directory exists and has any files in it. I have encountered some malware that would prevent new exe files from being saved to the disk, but I hope that's not the case.
Since the appdata folder is a hidden one, best to use the %temp% shortcut to go directly to your temp folder.

The image listing led me to a BD

C:\Users\karasu\AppData\Local\Temp\is-BDUI9.tmp

however, in that folder there is nothing but a text file. A " OpenSans-Regular " Altered 2/10/2017 (Though I never created that file... which is odd. The file seems to be a text sample of Sans Serif text listed as a file type "TrueTypeFontFile" @ 213kb of data.

So the ending after \is-BDU19\ ...

dx_unp doesn't even exist. It's just some random text sample file there.

No idea then. Only other thing I can think of is a possible malware infection that prevents any executable files from being created on the disk, so I'd suggest doing a malware scan.

Karasutono try

in cortana type in CMD then right click CMD and Run as Administrator

THEN type

sfc /scannow

Did you download any Font Files lately https://www.google.com.au/search?client=opera&q=OpenSans-Regular&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

Cortana? Don't have.

Fonts? It's Sans Serif. It comes with the OS. I've no need of downloading fonts either, so I don't.

What OS are you using? it's also known in older versions of windows as SEARCH

8.1


Just a thought, but why not simply offer the dx_unp as a downloadable to fix this? That way it's just a copy paste away from being patched?

ok so I'm going to add myy 2cents here.
1. download and antimaleware program (superantispyware is free) and run it see if it detects any ransom ware on your system. if it does have it clean it and look on the web for information about what the maleware can do to your system because it will probably take a day or two to completely clean you PC.

2 are you using AMD or NVIDIA? i didn't see anything posted as of the last windows patch there is an anti alaising issue with full screen games, they say a temp workaround is to "disable" all anti alaising and run all games in windowed mode.

3 as your getting through the common dialog options in each game it appears that the actual rendering is your issue. REINSTALL direct X as your errors all point to DX missing or a specific dll missing.

4. are you running a widescreen moniter? anything larger then the generic 800x600, try setting you screen resolution to the 8x6 for troubleshooting, out of game it will look pure ugly but we need to isolate what the issue is.

update here once you have tried these so we can either further assist or close this.

Also just tried Fallout 3 today, thing gets all the way into the intro page. Can mess with options and everything can go through the credits, whatever, but any attempt to press the "New Game" starts the projector flip screen animation to begin then auto crashes the game hard. Program itself seems to be running fine up til that point.

DeJa-
Witcher 3 simply wont even run. It just throws me into that folder in C. The item that's supposed to be there is missing and replaced by a text file which is a text sample for sans serif, not malware, just flat text, like the file is a sample of a font type written in Word.

I'd reinstalled Witcher 3 times now. At this rate it's just eating data to reinstall over and over again for the same results. The missing file has me curious though. I did a full system search. My entire Pc no less... There is no file "DX_Unp" As in at all. Anywhere. Or the Search function wont find it. So I'm missing a file that's supposedly critical to running Witcher from what the others tell me. Yet my other programs which run DX 9 are fine? Why is that?

As for the monitor it doesn't come with any options or any wide screen or anything.

I'll keep trying re-installs for the time being I guess. (Edit : No change. Reinstalled DX9)








I've actually got myself a folder of games which wont work now to sum them all up.

Dark Reign (and Shadowhand) [I've not even tried Dark Reign 2]
- The issue started with this one waaaaay back, Baldur's Gate 1 wouldn't run, but Dark Reign would. Baldur's gate required being in C directly since it didn't like long directory names or something. Once Baldur's gate fixed, Dark Reign wouldn't work at all. Not even entry to the pre game intro.

Deus Ex GotY
- Runs up till the starting page of character creation or in some amount of time depending on how fast you rush the intro... and then just crashes. So You can get some distance in before the game implodes.

Expendable
- Runs. Runs fine... problem is the graphics is like staring into a kaleidoscope during an acid trip. There is no rhyme or reason to the graphics and every second it runs the graphics get more ground up.

Fallout 3:
- Crashes on anything attempt to start a game. Anything prior to that it's fine. Settings, key mapping, all of it. Whole intro plays, but when one goes to start the game it redlines and hangs itself into a black screen and locks up in a windowed with a separate mini window like pop up inside it.

Neverwinter Nights Diamond Ed
- Crashes mid intro. Doesn't even get to game before insta-booting back to desktop.

Witcher 3 Wild hunt
- That's the one which throws me into C:\ ... and a coder or someone of know in here said it's because of a DX_UNP branch in the command line being faulty. Problem is there is no DX_UNP in the entire computer or in any download or re-install of either the game or the DX9 fresh from the site link. So I'm stumped. (This one is the most recent one I'm trying to work on fixing, and found the Fallout 3 one while trying to relax and wait it out. [New Vegas works fine btw. So do all Elderscrolls I've played; I own them all thanks to GoG.] just some hiccups here and there with programs not wanting to work.)

think about this, all these games your trying all similar issues, that isn't the game(s) it's your system. what happened since you last played any of them to your system? what update? what harware changes? if your trying to play different tapes on the same machine and they all do the same thing do you blame the tapes or the machine?

look into your admin tools-event viewer application look at the errors that are happening, is there a common theme?

Well.

Fallout 3 hasn't been played since it's install, but when it was started up it just failed.
Witcher same.
Expendable same.
Neverwinter Same.... though oddly Neverwinter 2 works fine.
Deus Ex same too even.

Which to me seems to mean they're either messing up just after the install or are missing something during install which the file checker misses? idk (though I've installed and reinstalled majority of those more than once with the file validation thing to check the consistency of files being active on install, or somethings just not meshing.)

The only one that doesn't fit the mark is the Baldur's Gate and Dark Reign issues since they didn't ever work at the same time. Dark Reign worked first and was running well but Baldur's gate was like the rest of these at first... it wouldn't get past the intro. Then installing Baldur's Gate closer to C let it run, but once Baldurs Gate was fixed it seemed to cause Dark Reign to mess up so it wouldn't work with the same intro problem. idk. Maybe some of the games came with DX integrated and messed up a pathway?

Dark Reign is one of those games that def does require DX, and had it running for that prior to the Baldur's Gate thing. But again, doesn't work now, and even full delete and re-reinstalls of DX9 aren't fixing that.



And to be fair, I've a bucket load of games from Gog, just those handful don't work.
So like out of all of those just the five mentioned or so don't work with the same odd glitch about not being able to actually start.

I'll give that one a whack. Thanks.

-Update-
Okay so let me reiterate here. That is the exact same one I already have. The same one I'd installed 4 times over. The same one missing that little dx_unp directory that was mentioned earlier with the screenshot and search into the directories to track it down.

So. The faulty games are still faulty. Even with the 5th install of a fresh DX9 source.

Tried Dark Reign Shadowhand and it stalled immediately into blackscreen, but the computer still can alt-ctrl-del and stuff to exit the black fullscreen.

This solution hasn't fixed it then.


I have an idea though. Use your search function to see if you also are missing the DX_Unp directory. See if it's something from an older version or some patch or something maybe?

Just the verification pic for the issues / What's done.

Did you run the Web Installer too? The offline installer might not be enough.
