smile   Re: DirectX driver issues in windows 10
I did not try the dxwebsetup.exe, but i did go to the Microsoft site and made sure that the DirectX11 drivers I have installed are the latest available.

I installed Java 9 and then Java 8 X86 version but that did not solve the fatal error.

I was surprised to see that version 5.3 from source forge worked without any issues whereas 5.2 from source forge and 5.6 from Amazon produce he fatal error.

I did not try the new parameters for 5.5 installation because these parameters are described as solutions for the 3D view running dramatically slow - I did not have that problem so I did not try that solution.

I did not find the additional parameters solution you posted on the Amazon site because it's hidden as a reply to a customer comment and is not immediately visible to someone browsing the customer comments.

I have posted a customer comment on Amazon in the main thread pointing out the installation difficulties and where to find solutions. I have added a paragraph that customers should not be discouraged by the installation difficulties because once installed the app is excellent.

Now that I have verified that your additional parameters solution for slow 3D also solves the fatal error situation I am a happy user.

I hope the posts to this forum and the Amazon customer comments help users find the installation solution more rapidly than I did.
Cheers
