HOW TO: Fix Unable to initialize DirectX" In Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne
or even can fix other games which have the same DirectX problem.

I'm facing the DirectX problem when I try to launch my Warcraft lll TFT which the game is portable. So there will be no reg at REGEDIT which change the reg is one of the solution.
I had tried google/youtube all the solutions but nothing can be help.
But luckily I had found out the easiest and best solution for this problem. =)
All you have to do is install all the Microsoft Visual C++ from 2008 till 2015.
For me, I'm using Window 7 Pro 64 bit (x64) but the game TFT may using system x86, so I installed both x64 and x86 just in case. Don't worry, the system will automatically choose the right C++ to run the game.

How to check your current directX?
Start - Run - Dxdiag
(At the system page, the System Information will show all the Operating System and DirectX Version)
My DirectX Version is DirectX 11 but still the error said that need to install 8.1 or higher.
So weird! =(
To install DirectX 9.0c

and DirectX 11
Do not download from other website which may contain malware or trojan.

How to check Microsoft Visual C++ installed in your pc?
Start - Control Panel - Programs - Uninstall a program
*Please be careful by not Uninstall any program. Just check and observe.

Download all the Microsoft Visual C++ from 2008 till 2015 or latest

If your Operating System is 32bit x86, then I think you can ignore the x64 file.
Too many link, so you have to search remain C++ by yourself at the same page.
IMPORTANT!!

Microsoft .NET Framework
You can update to latest 4.7 if the problem still occur. But for me, I'm using 4.5.
It's should be OK after you restart your pc. Good Luck! Thank you for watching.

Do you know why my TFT disc all of the sudden won't launch with an error pop up that says "This program is corrupted or incomplete"? I was playing yesterday just fine and now all of the sudden this error pops up and I can't launch the game. I foolishly uninstalled it thinking that would help and now the installer won't pop up either with the same error message. Would you have any clue on how to fix that?

I've got all of the Microsoft Visual C++ versions installed as well as Microsoft .Net Framework 4.7.2 and it still doesn't work. Is there something i have to do with the .Net Framework in order to get Warcraft 3 to run? Of course i also tried all of the things you mentioned at the start of your video. I'm using Windows 10 btw.
