Windows 11/10向以前版本的Windows上可用的功能堆栈添加了多项功能。其中一项功能是将图形工具^{(Graphic Tools)}安装为操作系统的附加功能。这些功能不包含在随附的产品中，但您可以根据需要轻松安装它们。重要的是要注意这些功能不是强制性的，它们的缺失不会以任何方式影响您的系统。

什么是图形工具？

图形工具^{(Graphics Tools)}可用于利用运行时和Visual Studio中提供的图形诊断功能来开发DirectX应用程序或游戏。它还包括在DirectX运行时创建Direct3D调试设备（通过Direct3D SDK 层^{(Direct3D SDK Layers)}）的能力，以及图形调试^{(Graphics Debugging)}、帧分析^{(Frame Analysis)}和GPU 使用^{(GPU Usage)}。

有时您可能需要最少的图形工具集，例如在以下场景中：

1. 编写API跟踪脚本或在实验室机器上执行回归测试
2. 安装 D3D SDK 层
3. 使用DXCAP命令行工具捕获和回放D3D图形日志文件

在这种情况下，Windows 10图形^(Graphics)工具可以提供很大帮助。

在Windows 11/10中安装或卸载图形^(Graphics) 工具^(Tools)

要在 Windows 11 或 Windows 10 计算机上安装图形工具，请按照以下步骤操作。^{(Graphics Tools)}

视窗 11

右键单击^{(Right-click)}任务栏^(Taskbar)上的Windows按钮，然后从选项列表中选择设置。或者，您可以组合按Win+I直接进入设置。

^{(Select Apps)}从左侧的侧面板中选择应用程序设置。

移动到应用程序^(Apps)的右窗格并选择可选功能^{(Optional features)}选项。

当定向到新屏幕时，点击添加可选功能^{(Add an optional feature)}文本标题旁边的查看功能按钮。^{(View features)}

然后，在添加可选功能^{(Add an optional feature)}框下，键入图形工具。

出现该选项时，选中该框并单击“下一步”^(Next)按钮。

现在，单击“安装^(Install)”按钮继续进行。

4. 现在，在Manage Optional Features窗口中，单击Add a feature。除了图形工具^{(Graphic Tools)}之外，您还可以添加多种字体^(Fonts)以及Insider Hub。

5. 寻找图形工具^{(Graphics Tools)}并点击它。

现在，单击“安装^(Install)”按钮将该功能载入您的 PC。

这就是将此功能添加到 Windows 10 PC 所需要做的全部工作。

如果您愿意，可以通过单击“卸载^(Uninstall)”按钮从“管理可选功能^{(Manage Optional Features)(Manage Optional Features)}”窗口轻松卸载图形工具。^{(Graphics Tools)}

DirectX图形工具有什么用？

DxDiag或更广为人知的DirectX 诊断工具^{(DirectX Diagnostic Tool)}是一种工具，可帮助我们识别与音频、显示、视频和任何其他在我们的计算机上运行所需功能的多媒体应用程序相关的问题。

Windows中有哪些可选功能？

Windows 可选功能是您可以通过Windows 功能^{(Windows Features)}对话框打开或关闭的功能。顾名思义，它们是可选的。因此，启用每个功能并不是必需的，因为它们可能会导致安全问题或系统性能下降。建议仅启用您实际需要的那些功能。
