You can still use the DirectX Control Panel if you like. Graphics Tools can be installed by using Windows 10 “Manage Optional Features” settings, or by running the following command: > DISM /online /add-capability /capabilityname:~~~~0.0.1.0

If you have been holding off installing Graphics Tools until you could change D3D settings from the command line, then your time has come. If you already have Graphics Tools installed (you do if you are using D3D debug layers), then updating to 20H1 will automatically add D3DConfig to your system. D3DConfig.exe is part of the Graphics Tools Feature-on-Demand and is available in the “20H1” Windows 10 Insider Preview (currently build 18970 in fast-ring). The D3DConfig tool can display and modify the DXCpl settings from the comfort of your very own console window or batch script. Introducing D3DConfig.exe in, a console app compatible with DXCpl. In addition, the UI-based DXCpl doesn’t integrate into automation scripts, nor is it useful on scaled-down Windows platforms that do not support Win32-based user interfaces. But what started as a simple utility for controlling D3D debug output and driver type selection has struggled to keep up with modern DX12 debugging options.

The DirectX Control Panel (DXCpl.exe) has dutifully given developers the ability to configure Direct3D debug settings for nearly two decades.
