You can use DXVK with some games by simply placing the DXVK dlls next to the .exe file of the game. That works with most D3D9 games and quite a few D3D11 games. Besides that, there's not much we can do and that's one of the reasons why we don't really support Windows.
Replacing system DLLs with random stuff you find online is always a really bad idea.

Hello world,
This will be a short stupid idea that i had. I wish it would work in the future.
There is an Unity game that I wanted to run in DXVK to see if I would get better performance on my Vega 8 GPU. As the d3d is not packaged with the game but directly invoked (supposedly) from UnityPlayer.dll at the Windows pre-packaged d3d inside C:\Windows\system32 I went ahead and booted into advanced mode and pulled up CMD to copy the files from latest release into the system32. I exited Advanced mode and I received a black screen after the loading icon.
I hope we can use Vulkan instead of DX on Windows in the future. For now atleast, I will go back in to start the recovery script. (On my github profile)
For now, I will try to create a custom UnityPlayer.dll that pulls on a specific d3d that I can replace.
