That makes no sense. I had no such thing installed on my PC. From my understanding Reshade actually installs SweetFX to get it working which it has for me. The problem seems to be windows 7 and it has missing files (the dxgi.dll file it says in the error), and Reshade does provide that file that is missing. Show To note: When you are installing reshade don't just click on the Rage 2 program on the list, manually browse and select the exe file. After this verify, then run both programs on admin, or both without, or one admin one without - these were my steps to finally get it running. I did also encounter an error after installing reshade, it wouldn't launch at all. Epic games then finally showed the error message which made me follow the above steps - but reasons for it not launching after installing reshade could vary imo. We all likely have different versions or things installed on our windows 7 which could cause all sorts of launch bugs but reshade will definately fix the dxgi.dll error if done right.
After upgrading to Windows 10 and updating NVIDIA drivers, some users have experienced issues with Sweetfx. The users with Sweetfx installed try to launch a game, they get the error “The procedure entry point CreateDXGIFactory 2 could not be located in the dynamic link library C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\d3d11.dll” and the game doesn’t launch. Other times, after clicking OK, the game starts normally
but crashes later on in the game. This issue comes as a result of a couple of issues: an issue with the latest NVIDIA drivers, issues with dxgi.dll and d3d11.dll files, and incompatibility issues with sweetfx. We’ll fix this by trying to revert to previous driver versions, uninstalling Sweetfx and finally, correcting the issue with the concerned dll. Method 1: Uninstalling SweetfxIt’s been noted Sweetfx has caused issues with certain games, after uninstalling it, you can try VibranceGUI as an alternative.
Method 2: Fixing the faulty dll
Method 3: Rolling Back NVIDIA DriversSome users pointed the issue to the latest NVIDIA drivers. You should try rolling back to get the issue fixed.
