Missing dll files

[NANI]

Ok so i suddenly found the dll file is missing on my downloaded official touhou games except 6,7,8,9 and 11.Even i reinstall the directx for several times,i still cant find the dll files on the th game,the issue isnt solved and i cant open those game except the unpatched one and the display is just like the image shown,the update is finished but the game wont launch even i clicked 'run the game' option.I have install those game for some time and suddenly i found these dll file went missing.So what should i do to solve this issue?

EXACTLY this happened to me, I think the vsync update caused this??? I was playing them all just fine earlier today, but suddenly when I went to open them and vsync auto-updated, bam, all my DLL files are missing, and putting in new ones doesn't work, the games just Crash. The last vsync update also caused issues with EoSD, where you could no longer view endings, the game would crash once a run was complete.

i also has this same problem

I'm having this same issue I think. Tried booting up english versions of 11 and 10 and i got this DLL Injection Error. I'm assuming this is the same thing you two are dealing with.

i only have this problem at 10,12,13,14 and 15,but my 16 to 18 isnt show any of this,they just simply no response when i clicked the run game button and the auto launch after the thcrap updates

I've been having the same issue too. I played 11 a couple days ago, but haven't been able to launch it since today. Same with 10.

this is very bizzare
i do updates on both Thcrap and DirectX and it run just fine

if you having problem with the Thcrap, i recommend deleting the thcrap folder and install new one

and just to make sure you installed the correct DirectX version

also you guys putting dll files in your game folder?

if you do, then...
that's not how you do it

[Drunken_Flower]

also i just got information that thcrap often failed to update which broke things.
possibly bugs on their end so... nothing can do here

usually the game folder consist the .dll file like the image shown,but today i just found that most of the gen 3 game folder is missing those .dll files,gen 2 also have the same issue except th11 but i still cant launch any gen 2 and gen 3 touhou with thcrap

i really have no idea what's wrong with your machine.
ive used 3 different PCs with 3 different windows version and none of them i have problem with

and putting standalone dll in you folder is not a good idea.
if you truly has installed DirectX, your PC will automatically locate the dll files from system files.
by i mean install is running an .exe that will automatically do the hardwork for you.
not by copy pasting a dll file.

For now the issue has been solved and i think the problem that the patched game wont launch might be the thcrap problem.Though i wonder why before this i got the dll file in the game folder after i install the directx and i didn't even had to copy paste the dll file to each game folder.Because now i can launch the game just like usual even without the dll file is in the folder.

Anyway,the case for this problem is solved for me.
