Start DirectX 12 Tutorial .exe
I already walked through the first nine DirectX 12 tutorials and they work fine if I start them from within Visual Studio. Now I wanted to use the Graphics Debugging Tool PIX and so I needed to start the .exe file, but then I get an error ("Debug error, abort() has been called"). Do I need additional files to run that? Any dll's? I thought everything was dynamically linked with the .lib files.

I haven't actually used PIX myself, i usually use visual studio's graphics debugger (debug->graphics->start graphics debugger) when i'm using DirectX, and RenderDoc or nvidia nsight when i'm using OpenGL. .lib files are actually statically linked libraries, not dynamically linked libraries (dll). I know this isn't really an answer to your question, but i'd suggest trying out the visual studio graphics debugger first if you haven't already. like you mentioned though, there's a good chance that the dll's you need are not found (directx dll?) If you find the answer it would be really helpful if you'd post it here!
