    Hello and welcome! :)

    Can you please confirm: are you attempting to install MediaPortal 1 or MediaPortal 2?

    Okay.

    I should say: Windows 10 definitely does support DirectX 9.

    I recommend you try the latest update snapshot:
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/mediaportal-2-sr15-update-1-snapshot-2015-08-01.131488/

    It should install the required dependencies for you.

    If you still have problems, you can always try MP1. MP2 and MP1 both have their strengths and weaknesses. In general MP1 is the more mature product where MP2 is still a bit of a work in progress. You may find that MP1 suits you better.

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

    Looks like there's some kind of error regarding translations that I can't pinpoint about Subcentral. You'll find it in the log file I attached to my previous message. I don't understand it because I use MP in english, I search for subtitles in english and not in my native language, so I can't figure out what's translation got to do...
