DirectX 9.0 install

Hi, I am wanting to play the game world of tanks on my computer but when I try to play it pops up with System Error - d3dx9_43.dll is missing and after some searching, i found that you need to install DirectX to fix. But when I go to download it says Requested action requires elevation and I don't know how to fix. I have windows 10. 

You didn't mention which DirectX tool your are trying to download or where you are trying to download from.

Are you logged on with an Administrator account ? If you are disable your Anti-virus temporarily as this may be

blocking the installer (or download).

- As you know which DirectX file is required, try using the DirectX Web Installer. This will install any 'missing' DX files.

Download DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer from Official Microsoft Download Center

- If you get a message that you already have a equivalent or newer version your d3dx9_43.dll may have been corrupted

(games reinstall DX, and sometimes corrupt perfectly good files in the process).

Browse to Windows\System32 and sysWOW64 and locate the d3dx9_43.dll in each folder and delete them.

Run the Web Installer again and it should replace the now missing file with a new one.
