I went to reinstall Eve like I normally do (I am not the "gets mad and deletes guy, I had to reinstall my OS 4 times in a week) and upon the 4th and final install I noticed that when I pushed the "launch" button it kept pushing to download a new version of DirectX or something like that. This is a Microsoft product and is developed by what is a verified publisher. The version they pushed was marked Yellow, which usually means non-legit or potential malware (it even stated that there was no publisher). So what exactly were the Devs pushing? If it were even them. And no, I didn't have malware before that could have done it, I was on a fresh install.

Simply, Why was there an unidentified DirectX update pushed by the Eve launcher
