I'm trying to install Skyrim SE on Steam and it says that it's missing a DirectX file. So I run the DirectX installer and get the following error:
An internal system error occurred. Please refer to DXError.log and
DirectX.log in your Windows folder to determine problem.
The DXError.log file:

As it turns out DirectX installers apparently do not like custom My Documents paths (E.g. D:My Documents instead of C:UsersJohn). I switched to a different Windows profile user and the installer worked just fine.
