The other day I launched an old game and got met with an error, something about directX9 and missing a redistributable file or something. Decided not to fuck with it.
Yesterday I launched it again to take a closer look at the error message to see if I could fix it. No error message, game booted without issues.

My confusion.
Did you reboot your PC after installing? Games often included DirectX redistributables which required a reboot to fully install.
Don't forget them cosmic rays flipping bits in your memory.
It got scared and decided to fix itself.
