[Solved-3 Solutions] DirectX SDK Installation Error Code S1023



Error Description:

Installation of DirectX goes well, but at the end we get the message:

Setup failed. Errors were encountered during installation of redistributable packages. Please close all open programs and try running setup again. If problems persist, contact DirectX Developer Support.

  • Error Code: S1023

Solution 1:

  • Check your temp folder (C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp) for the most recent file named
  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable Setup_20110608_xxx.html ##

Check if you have the following error

  • Installation Blockers:
  • A newer version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable has been detected on the machine.
  • Final Result: Installation failed with error code: (0x000013EC), "A StopBlock was hit or a System >Requirement was not met." (Elapsed time: 0 00:00:00).

then go to Control Panel>Program & Features and uninstall all the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86/x64 redistributable - 10.0.(number over 30319)

  • After successful installation of DXSDK, simply run Windows Update and it will update the redistributables back to the latest version.

Solution 2:

  • Remove the Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package version 10.0.40219 (Service Pack 1) from the system (both x86 and x64 if applicable). This can be easily done via a command-line with administrator rights:

MsiExec.exe /passive /X{F0C3E5D1-1ADE-321E-8167-68EF0DE699A5}
MsiExec.exe /passive /X{1D8E6291-B0D5-35EC-8441-6616F567A0F7}

  • Install the DirectX SDK (June 2010)
  • Reinstall the Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package version 10.0.40219 (Service Pack 1). On an x64 system, you should install both the x86 and x64 versions of the C++ REDIST. Be sure to install the most current version available, which at this point is the KB2565063 with a security fix.

Solution 3:

  • Start regedit
  • Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> SOFTWARE-> Wow6432Node-> Microsoft->DirectX
  • If this DirectX folder doesn't exist, create it.
  • If already here, make sure it's empty.
  • Now right click in the empty window on the right and add this data (there will probably be at least a Default string value located here, just leave it):
New->Binary Value
Name: InstalledVersion
Type: REG_BINARY
Data: 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 00

New->DWORD (32-bit) Value
Name: InstallMDX
Type: REG_DWORD
Data: 0x00000001

New->String Value
Name: SDKVersion
Type: REG_SZ
Data: 9.26.1590.0

New->String Value
Name: Version
Type: REG_SZ
Data: 4.09.00.0904

  • Reinstall using latest DXSDK installer. Runtime only option may work too but I didn't test it.
