I tried it myself and see what happened. DOSBox-X 0.83.14 added support for directories on the Z drive, and programs like MOUNT.COM are now located on subdirectories of the Z drive (e.g. Z:\SYSTEM for MOUNT.COM) rather than the root directory of the drive. The default %PATH% in DOSBox-X has been changed accordingly, but it appears that D-Fend Reloaded will set it again by itself ("Z:\" by default). So you just need to change the setting for %PATH% in the section "DOS environment" of D-Fend GUI to the following to match the new default:

PATH=Z:\;Z:\SYSTEM;Z:\BIN;Z:\DOS;Z:\4DOS;Z:\DEBUG;Z:\TEXTUTIL

Then D-Fend Reloaded should work just fine with DOSBox-X 0.83.14. Hope this helps.
