Game crashes on launch after upgrade to Windows 10 Anniversary Edition even w/ Intro Video Disable

Hi,

I was enjoying a game, but after upgrading Windows 10 to the anniversary edition I can no longer launch Distant Worlds: Universe.

- I read some other threads here which recommended disabling the intro video, but that didn't work.
- Attaching a DxDiag

Would appreciate help in getting this working again. It's unlucky that this broke after the upgrade and after I had picked the game up again after a hiatus.

best,
leematrix

Thanks, johanwanderer. Re-installing DirectX did the trick.
