I have bought a new gaming laptop. Whenever I try to run any game on it, I get the error x3daudio1_7 dll is missing windows 10. I am unable to play any games due to this. Did I just buy a broken laptop, or can I really fix this?
No. You do not have a broken laptop. The error you are getting is a type of DLL file error which is quite common. The x3daudio1_7.dll is a DLL file associated with Microsoft DirectX. Since most games use DirectX, you are getting this error whenever you launch a game.
The first thing you can try is to find the missing file on the internet, download it, and place it in the required folder. This should work most of the time. If this does not work for you, try and install DirectX again. Check the version of DirectX that you have on your computer and the recommended version required by the game. Update it to the latest version available and things should work just fine.
