Where you put the extracted d3d9.dll file depends on the application that needs it. If the error tells you the specific folder where d3d9.dll is missing from, copy the file there. However, since most programs probably look for this file in C:\Windows\system32, copy it there if you’re not explicitly told where to put it. Some DirectX installations might use C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ instead.
