Talking about the mentioned error some times it may appear like DX11 feature level 10.0 is required to run the engine on your Windows system. This error mostly appears whenever the system doesn’t have a proper Direct3D Hardware Feature Level which is required by the game engine. That means the app engine is unable to use the Direct 3D Feature Level version 10.0 or higher on your Windows computer. Keep in mind that the Windows, graphics drivers, and DirectX is updated.
Now, if the DirectX, Windows, and graphics drivers are updated completely, then there may be some issues with your graphics card that don’t meet expected system requirements to run the app engine. To recall, DirectX is a collection of app programming interfaces (APIs) from Microsoft that handle multiple graphics-related tasks like game programming & multimedia. The collection of APIs offers DX-compatible programs with hardware-accelerated multimedia support.
