To be fair, this is Ubi's fault and not Microsoft's. Every version of DirectX is fully backwards compatible with all previous versions. For some reason Ubi decided to link to a specfiic DX file by name, and when that file is not found the app won't load.
And yes, you can and should install DirectX 9, it won't screw anything up. That's the only solution unless Ubi changes fixes their code.
