SweetFX/Reshade in FSX-SE + Windows10, windowed?

Hello everyone. I asked in the SweetFX forum, but almost no one goes there, so I'm trying again here.

Has anybody been able to run SweetFX or Reshade in Windows 10 (version 1803 or newer)? I've tried doing so, but FSX-SE refuses to start (FS9 does neither).

I've also tried installing the June/2010 DirectX End-User Runtimes, but it does still not work. I've run out of ideas. Does anybody have another one?

For reference, my specs are at my signature below.

Best regards,

Main rig: self built, AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D (with SMT off and CO -50 mV), 2x16 GB DDR4-3200 RAM, Nvidia RTX3060 Ti 8GB, 256 GB M.2 SSD (OS+apps) + 2x1 TB SATA III SSD (sims) + 1 TB 7200 rpm HDD (storage), ID-Cooling SE-224-XTS air cooler, Viewsonic VX2458-MHD 1920x1080@120 Hz (G-sync compatible, but disabled), Windows 10 Pro. Running P3D v5.4 (with v4.5 scenery objects as an additional library, just in case) and MSFS2020. On the fence for MSFS2024.

Mobile rig: ASUS Zenbook UM425QA (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H APU @3.2 GHz and boost disabled, 1 TB M.2 SSD, 16 GB RAM, Windows 11 Pro). Running FS9 there for airliner ops. FSX-SE also installed, mainly for VFR. Lossless Scaling in al my rigs. What a godsend...

Luis, you are technically breaking the rules by having 2 identical topics in 2 different forums.  Should I do a temporary removal of the one in the SweetFX forum?

Yes, please remove the other one. No one is paying attention there. At least here it has more exposure...

If you are using DX10 Fixer with FSX-SE then I think only version 1 of Reshade is working.
And then you have to rename the ReShade32.dll to d3d11.dll (at least I had to, in my system) for FSX-SE to start.

Thanks, niklaslan. I don't have DX10 Fixer; I didn't see any performance improvement when enabling DX10 Preview and I didn't go further. Thus, I'm stuck in DX9.

Sorry for necroing, but I think I found the solution: I was simply overwriting the settings file with a new one. Instead, I decided to install SweetFX from scratch, and then started transcribing the settings from the configuration I had to the one I installed. Now it works so far.
