Hello everyone i recently downloaded skyrim from steam and it has not been working. When i start it from steam the skyrim launcher comes up and as soon as i click play there i get this message.x3daudio1_6.dll is missing. I have been told that it is an error with directx11 and or Microsoft c++, i have downloaded and update both about 20 times now and it still does not work. I have also restarted my computer multiple times and messed with the audio stuff like 48000 16bit and 24. If anyone has any suggestions please tell me. This also occurs on other games and programs such as cryengine 3 and dead island,but doesnt occur in games such as Just Cause 2 and Diablo 3.

Is your PC optimised for DirectX 11?

I would try verifying your game cache under properties before deleting and re-installing.
