What is this?
Do I want to allow this to make changes to my computer?
If it does (oops) have a valid Microsoft digital signature, it’s highly unlikely to hurt anything.
If it doesn’t, it’s almost certainly a threat.
DirectX is a bunch of API’s (libraries and tools) to let programs work in the Windows environment. EVE uses DirectX 11, or DirectX 9 if your Windows doesn’t support 11. Various programs, including EVE, will also have “redistributables”, which are sort-of like patches to DirectX that have been customized for the program.
Bottom line, if you don’t allow the redistributable, whatever program you’re trying to run will not work. So it’s a matter of whether you trust whatever program you’re trying to install (EVE or other).
Guess it is obvious but just in case: what she meant is if it DOES have a proper digital signature then it is unlikely to be an issue but if it does NOT then it most probably is an issue.
Heh, oops.
