Hello, I formatted last night due to nonsense viruses and slowing down the computer, I was using windows 10, I installed windows 10 again. I use dgvoodoo actively without any problems, but after the format, even the games I set before do not work, I mean, I did everything I could think of, the driver is up to date, dx is installed, vc redist is installed, so what could be the thing that requires it not to work? What could be missing so that the program that works smoothly does not work after the format. Thank you in advance for your support.

Or your antivirus is blocking the load. Defender. Or you don't have administrator rights. Or something is redirecting the load of the dll, for example if there is a direct indication in the registry (Re: Direct3D8 HAL support removed by Nvidia?). There is no reason why the wrapper could not work in new versions of Windows.

You need to put .dlls from MS/x86 folder into the game binary folder and without any configuration it should work for most older games out there. There are games that are a bit more trickier to get dgvoodoo work on them. What game are you trying to run with dgvoodoo?

It doesn't matter which game it is, I already said in my post that I use it actively and I already have dgvoodoo configuration in many games, here I share the images before and after the format. as I said, I don't know how to overcome this problem.
Whatever happened after the format, whatever was missing, it doesn't work, as I said, I can't run the program that I never had a problem before the format.

The dgvoodoo configuration is already in the game in short dgvoodoo is not working for some reason.

Delete dgVoodoo.conf. Run dgVoodooCpl.exe again, re-select output API and adapter, click OK.
Also re-run the game's own config utility if it has one. They usually store settings in the registry which was wiped in the format.

I tried all of them and the result is the same, normally in the output api section I was using Best available one to work on other PCs. but in the adapter use section in the dx11 dx12 subsection, all of them, but I tried them all to no avail.
I don't think it's the game's own configuration, I use dgvoodoo in about 60 or 65 games, all of them already have the configuration and none of them work, I uninstalled it and configured it from scratch and it still didn't work, it's a very strange problem, I've been using dgvoodoo for years and this is the first time I've encountered this problem.

Try disabling UAC. Also add an exclusion in Defender for the four dlls.

Strange thing, uninstalled and reinstalled the driver and it worked.
