Welcome to the DxWrapper wiki!

This wiki discusses in more detail about DxWrapper. DxWrapper is a dll file designed to fix compatibility issues in older games by wrapping or hooking DirectX (or other) libraries to fix Windows 10/11 compatibility issues in older games.

Configuration

To configure DxWrapper you just need to edit the ini file to enable the settings you want. See the Configuration, Configuration (stub) and Configuration (advanced) wikis for more details.

Logging

The log file will be created in the same folder where the game executable is located. It will be named 'dxwrapper' with the name of the game executable appended to it. So if you are running the file game.exe then the log file will be called dxwrapper-game.log.

Windows 10/11 Compatibility List for Games

So far I have tested a few hundred games on Windows 10/11 with the tool. Many of these games have some issues on Windows 10/11 or won't run at all.
