Plutonium Launcher GPUDrivers D3D11 Errors
-
MRPEVIL We can't help you, the launcher requires dx11 and the 9500GT only supports dx10. Also please create your own thread next time.

Howl So I don't need to assume your OS because by hearing your problem I know it's Windows 10. So the reason why it is happening? Because Windows 10 has built in directx 12. I have two OS's and I tested on both. So what is the conclusion? Windows 7 has Directx 11 and Windows 10 has Directx 12. Simply go to device manager and disable your display adapter. Now you won't face that issue but the performance will decrease as I have integrated one the performance fell a lot. I didn't tried starting it again after the launcher turned on. Will try today.
GhostR29 no that is not the solution at all... it's a hardware limitation. windows 7 and windows 10 both support dx9-dx12, just not out of the box, you have to manually install the runtime. Idk what disabling the display adapter is supposed to do? that has absolutely nothing to do with directx.
Again: It's a Hardware Limitation.
However there is a workaround that some people have reported as working:

Here is a solution that works according to HannesC :
- Download this file https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fTzQtshdqhoUziaHpwxUY7gN0BidStnR/view?usp=sharing
- Run it
- Click "Edit List..."
- Click the three dots right of the "enter a process or folder name" field and select "plutonium-launcher-win32.exe" located in "C:\Users\al\AppData\Local\Plutonium\bin"
- tick the "force warp" checkbox and select "11_0" from the "feature level limit" dropdown menu
- hit ok and try launching the plutonium launcher

Dss0 Mate my integrated graphics supports Directx11. Actually it's something with the OS. As I said it ran on windows 7 but gave an error on windows 10. I could have ran it on windows 7 but as that drive is low on space it shuts down(launcher). As a conclusion what HannesC said, it did the job. Actually the problem for me is related to OS not hardware so good on it.
Intel Core i5-3470 3.60GHz
Intel hd graphics 2500 desktop
4gb ram. -
It ran on windows 7 because previous versions of pluto could run on it and the game doesn't require dx11 by default. The new launcher, however, requires some of dx11 functions and the controller update required you to upgrade because of xinput1_4, which is only shipped with win10 and not the older OS's. The point still stands, you have an old gpu, consider upgrading it.

HannesC it still gives me the error and i dont have a app data folder
DefiantObey You do but it's hidden by default, you need to enable "show hidden files and folders" in the windows explorer options.

Dss0 i know see that but plutonium is not there just windows and temp
DefiantObey You're in the wrong folder. AppData/Local contains alot more than that even without any programs installed on your pc.
