Actions required for Windows 7 DirectX developers after the installation

If you are a Windows 7 DirectX developer who uses the June 2010 DirectX Software Development Kit (SDK), you’ll have to update your development environments after you install this platform update. The following .dll files that are associated with this SDK are incompatible with this platform update:

  • D3D10SDKLayers.dll

  • D3D11SDKLayers.dll

  • D3D10ref.dll

  • D2D1debug.dll

You can use one of the following applications or tools to update these .dll files:

  • The Windows 8 SDK: This SDK updates the current development environment with new headers, libs, and tools. These include the development .dll files from the preceding list. This update does not update the C or C++ compilers or the IDE, but it does let developers integrate the new features of the platform update into their applications.

  • Microsoft Visual Studio 2012: This application includes the Windows 8 SDK, the Visual Studio 2012 IDE, and the new compilers. It also lets developers integrate the new features of the platform update into their applications.

  • Remote Tools for Visual Studio 2012: These tools represent the minimum requirement in order to continue using the Direct3D debug layer. These tools update only the development .dll files from the preceding list. They do not enable developers to integrate the new features of the platform update into their applications. These tools are available in the «Remote Tools for Visual Studio 2012» section of the Visual Studio Download Center.


    Note The Pix for Windows tool from the DirectX SDK is incompatible with this platform update. See Debugging Shaders in Visual Studio for more information about the new tools that are available in Visual Studio 2012.

For more developer information about this platform update, see Platform update for Windows 7.

More Information

To use the update in this package, you do not have to make any changes to the registry.

The following updates are superseded by this platform update:

  • 2505438 Slow performance in applications that use the DirectWrite API on a computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2

  • 2511250 You cannot print a Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) or level 3 Cascading Style Sheet (CSS3) file in Internet Explorer 9

  • 2522422 Cannot print from Internet Explorer 9 using some Canon printers

  • 2488113 An application that uses Direct2D or Direct3D may crash in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2

  • 2741355 You cannot start Windows Movie Maker 2012 when a graphics card that only supports DirectX 9 is installed on a Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer

After you install this platform update, Windows 7 updates for the files that are listed in the «File information» section will be superseded by updates for this platform update.

The global version of this hotfix installs files that have the attributes that are listed in the following tables. The dates and the times for these files are listed in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The dates and the times for these files on your local computer are displayed in your local time together with your current daylight saving time (DST) bias. Additionally, the dates and the times may change when you perform certain operations on the files.

Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 file information notes Important Windows 7 hotfixes and Windows Server 2008 R2 hotfixes are included in the same packages. However, hotfixes on the Hotfix Request page are listed under both operating systems. To request the hotfix package that applies to one or both operating systems, select the hotfix that is listed under «Windows 7/Windows Server 2008 R2» on the page. Always refer to the «Applies To» section in articles to determine the actual operating system that each hotfix applies to.

  • The files that apply to a specific product, milestone (RTM, SPn), and service branch (LDR, GDR) can be identified by examining the file version numbers as shown in the following table:

    Version

    Product

    Milestone

    Service branch

    6.1.760
    1.22xxx

    Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2

    SP1

    LDR

  • GDR service branches contain only those fixes that are widely released to address widespread, critical issues. LDR service branches contain hotfixes in addition to widely released fixes.

  • The MANIFEST files (.manifest) and the MUM files (.mum) that are installed for each environment are listed separately in the «Additional file information for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2» section. MUM and MANIFEST files, and the associated security catalog (.cat) files, are critical to maintaining the state of the updated component. The security catalog files, for which the attributes are not listed, are signed with a Microsoft digital signature.

При запуске какой-либо игры (обычно это популярная «H1Z1») последняя может выдать сообщение «Needs Windows 7 Service Pack 1 Platform Update», после чего запуск игры становится невозможен. Указанным месседжем программа сообщает, что для её нормального запуска необходима установка в системе специализированного обновления платформы ОС Виндовс 7 со встроенным «Service Pack 1». Попытки же пользователя установить указанное обновление часто оканчиваются безрезультатно. Что же предпринять в данной ситуации? Ниже я разберу, в чём сущность данной дисфункции, и как её исправить.

Что значит «Needs Windows 7 service Pack 1 Platform Update»?

В переводе данное сообщение выглядит как «Необходимо обновление платформы Сервис Пак 1 для Виндовс 7». Обычно подобная проблема возникает в ситуации, когда на пользовательском ПК с Виндовс 7 не установлен требуемый Сервис Пак 1, или отсутствует необходимое для данной ОС обновление платформы для Виндовс 7.

Попытки пользователя обновить свою систему через загрузку и запуск указанного Service Pack 1 с сайта Майкрософт (или обновления платформы Виндовс 7) обычно не дают какого-либо результата. Появляется табличка запуска процесса обновления, после чего указанный процесс может продолжаться часами без каких-либо изменений.

Подобная ситуация связана с некорректно работающей службой «Центр обновления Виндовс» (Windows Update) блокирующей установку необходимого апдейта платформы Виндовс 7 СП 1.

Данная дисфункция также часто идентифицируется кодом ошибки «g34», встречающейся на пользовательских ПК.

Для решения ошибки «Needs Windows 7 service Pack 1 Platform Update» необходимо выполнить ряд способов, которые я перечислю ниже.

Установите обновление платформы Виндовс 7 SP1

Поскольку в большинстве случаев на компьютерах пользователей установлена ОС Виндовс с SP1, то нам будет необходимо провести ряд шагов для установки затребованного системой апдейта платформы Виндовс 7. Выполните следующее:

  • Скачайте обновление платформы Виндовс 7 с сайта Майкрософт. Перейдите по указанной ссылке, нажмите на «Скачать». Вы увидите два файла, с упоминанием x64 – для 64-битной ОС, и x86 – для 32-битной. Выберите файл, который соответствует вашей ОС, и скачайте его на ваш ПК (но не запускайте). Файлы для загрузки
    Выберите файл, соответствующий вашей системе

    Если вы не в курсе, какой разрядности ваша ОС (32 или 64), тогда нажмите сочетание кнопок Win+Pause, и в появившемся окне просмотрите значение параметра «Тип системы»;

  • Временно отключите службу «Центр обновления Виндовс». Нажмите на Win+R, в появившейся строке введите services.msc и нажмите Enter. В открывшемся окне служб найдите службу «Центр обновления Виндовс», наведите на неё курсор, щёлкните ПКМ, и выберите «Остановить»;Опция Остановить
  • Запустите скачанный вами ранее файл обновления платформы Виндовс 7. Обычно его установка после остановленной ранее службы обновлений проходит без каких-либо проблем;
  • Запустите нужную вам игру.

Установите Сервис Пак 1 для Виндовс 7

В случае, если ваша Виндовс 7 не имеет установленного Сервис Пак 1, тогда рекомендуется установить его с сайта Майкрософт. При этом он уже будет включать в себя необходимое «Обновление платформы Виндовс 7».

Переустановите игровую программу

Если вы выполнили перечисленные выше шаги, но ошибка продолжает появляться, рекомендуется переустановить саму игру. Часто это позволяет избавиться от ошибки g34 на вашем ПК.

Заключение

Сообщение «Needs Windows 7 service Pack 1 Platform Update» обычно возникает в ситуации отсутствия в системе необходимого обновления платформы Виндовс 7 SP1. Рекомендуется скачать и установить требуемое обновления (перед тем остановив Центр обновления Виндовс), что позволит исправить ошибку g34 на вашем компьютере.
