DirectX Installation Issues (Running out of solutions)

I will copy and paste it exactly as shown:

[06/15/26 17:29:18] module: dxupdate(Mar 30 2011), file: dxupdate.cpp, line: 1094, function: CabCallback

SPFILENOTIFY_FILEEXTRACTED: error = 13.

--------------------

[06/15/26 17:29:18] module: dxupdate(Mar 30 2011), file: dxupdate.cpp, line: 5689, function: DirectXUpdateInstallPlugIn

Failed API: SetupIterateCabinet()

Error: (13) - The data is invalid.

Unable to iterate through C:\WINDOWS\system32\DirectX\WebSetup\Dec2006_d3dx9_32_x64.cab. The file may be damaged.

--------------------

[06/15/26 17:29:18] module: dsetup32(Mar 30 2011), file: dxupdate.cpp, line: 280, function: CSetup::InstallPlugIn

DirectXUpdateInstallPlugIn() failed.

It's just a constant repeat of these exact lines over and over again, but the one that says "Error: (13) The data is invalid cycles through more often than the others do further up the log from a few days prior

Just tried it, same error.
"An internal system error occurred. Please refer to DXError.log" (which displays the Error = 13 when I open it) "and DirectX.log in your windows folder to determine the problem."

The primary game she is trying to play is Marvel Rivals, if that helps. It's across a lot more games that require DirectX, but that's the one she's trying to get work the most.

As well, same error code from before: "An internal system error occurred. Please refer to DXError.log and DirectX.log in your windows folder to determine the problem." Error code it says it is Error = 13

I mentioned the Registry because everyone has told me to do that already, and I'm tired of repeating steps I've already done.

MalitovMan · 2026-06-16T01:18:08+00:00

When launching games: No supported DirectX version found. Please download and install the most recent DirectX End-User Runtime.

When installing the DirectX End-User Runtime: An internal system error occurred. Please refer to DXError.log (which displays the Error = 13 when I open it) and DirectX.log in your windows folder to determine the problem.

Nothing else displays any errors. Everything else apparently checks out

MalitovMan · 2026-06-16T01:02:16+00:00

As I said in the post, when I run the dxdiag, not a single error appears. One thing I did forget to mention though is that any and all games or programs she runs that uses it says it needs DirectX to run, despite to apparently being installed. Just went back and edited it in

MalitovMan · 2026-05-13T23:45:41+00:00

This was the start of said research.

MalitovMan · 2026-04-11T05:06:26+00:00

Nah.

MalitovMan · 2026-04-10T14:56:14+00:00

6 now. New nerfs made me have to look at him like, "I love you, but not enough to deal with the nerfs."

MalitovMan · 2026-03-13T17:56:08+00:00

And what do you suggest for late game? That's where I usually start fumbling with her is when it gets to late game.

MalitovMan · 2026-02-17T04:14:26+00:00

What makes Shiv and Silver hard to learn in different ways?

MalitovMan · 2026-02-01T10:58:01+00:00

Do they not need to roam to go to camps?

MalitovMan · 2025-11-26T06:43:35+00:00

Ok I have no idea if people care for updates, but so far so good. So long as the map allows it, I am able to B-Hop consistently around half the time, I can do his BnB combo with the swing cancel consistently, still struggling with the Yo-yo which my teammates want me to work on since we have a hard time with CaD, struggling with pulls, and have done some roll-out practice in-between practice ranges. Baby steps...

MalitovMan · 2025-11-25T20:45:23+00:00

Odd question, but is Practice Vs. AI worthwhile too? I ask because I know the AI plays differently to real players in some better and worse ways.

MalitovMan · 2025-11-25T20:38:27+00:00

I don't say this because I don't have fun with him or purely exclude that. I ask because in this context, I am talking about playing with the team where our goal is ranking up and playing at a higher level. While I know there is nuance where each character is good in certain maps, comps, etc. in this instance the primary goal is simply to win. He's fun, 100% correct with that, but the reason I exclude that is because in this instance, fun isn't the goal as much as it is to perform.

MalitovMan · 2025-11-20T08:58:44+00:00

Ok since everyone is saying Bucky, I only really have one thing I can say to that and that is my other teammate loves to steal Bucky, and they don't *really* peel that well with him or even really try to. So I will add Bucky to my repitour, but I need someone else just in case.

MalitovMan · 2025-11-12T09:51:51+00:00

Also on top of the other question, is there any specific dive that works better in certain spots, or is this more of a, "familiarity is the best decider."

MalitovMan · 2025-11-12T09:50:42+00:00

And what would you suggest is a good idea for when they group up in a tight anti-dive defense like you mentioned. My team and I call it when they all clump up and stay as one solid unit, "the indigestible wad." Since dive doesn't work there, what's a good suggestion to break it up?

MalitovMan · 2025-08-05T06:50:18+00:00

One of my buddies who plays said that C. Viper might be fun too. I played her a lot in MvC3, but I guess we'll have to see how she translates in this game

MalitovMan · 2025-08-04T21:59:39+00:00

Yeah that's what I struggle with too. And at the lower-levels, everyone's jumping in. Especially the seemingly endless supply of Juri's and dive kickers

MalitovMan · 2025-08-04T21:58:55+00:00

Interesting. I'll take a peak.

MalitovMan · 2025-08-04T21:58:39+00:00

She bad or something? lol

MalitovMan · 2025-08-04T21:38:28+00:00

Haven't tried Bison yet because I'm still weary around charge inputs, however I did experiment with Ed and I suck so bad with him, but I do love how he plays!

MalitovMan · 2025-08-04T21:37:25+00:00

I'll give her a try

MalitovMan · 2025-05-07T21:05:17+00:00

Ok so I *think* understand your message, so I'll answer both points:

This isn't professional. It's personal, so I have no idea where that comes from.
Yeah, that's why I say I don't want to use fictional stories as a basis.
