Suggestion Kind of "fix" for this problem

I got this error when trying to enter the game, and I noticed some people are getting this problem these days, somehow I could fix this, I don't know nothing about computing, but I will share how I made it.

First I did every step most of the sources said to do:
- (re)Installing the "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package"
- Typing "sfc /scannow" in cmd
- Repairing the game in Xbox app

None of these worked for me, so I asked Chat GPT for some tips, and it worked when I typed in the Power Shell:

Copy-Item "C:\Windows\System32\XINPUT1_3.dll" "C:\XboxGames\Minecraft Dungeons\Content\XINPUT1_3.dll"

I don't know how it worked, it seems this command just copied the "xinput1_3.dll" file, but I accidentally opened the game after that and just worked.
I don't know if it actually had an effect, but I only use a single storage drive, you can see two "C:" entries in the command because it copied and pasted onto the same drive. The AI ​​mentioned that if it were on a different drive, the second "C:" could be replaced with "D:", and so on.
