[SOLVED] Can't enable Direct play

batangbajun18 · Jan 13, 2022

I was hoping if someone could help me with my problem. I can't enable DirectPlay which is required in order to install some games. I tried it in Programs and Features but it says error. I also tried in Powershell but it give me this
"The operation is complete but DirectPlay feature was not enabled.
A required parent feature may not be enabled. You can use the /enable-feature /all option to automatically enable each parent feature from the following list. If the parent feature(s) are already enabled, refer to the log file for further diagnostics.
LegacyComponents"
Any ideas to fix it?

DirectPlay is now a deprecated feature in Windows 10, reserved mostly for running old video games.

Can you give us the error message displayed while you tried to enable DirectPlay from Turn Windows features on or off applet.

Execute the following commands one at a time.
