So basically my problem is that the way my "cnconline.exe" is hooked at the moment; it prevents me from getting the game to launch properly.

For some reason, the "cnconline.exe" application always looks to Steam's install directory for CNC3: Kane's Wrath even after "successfully" hooking to the Origin version, but I only have the Origin version of (Tib Wars 3 and) Kane's Wrath installed at this time so as you can imagine it's making my pc have a digital fit.

 

I've made sure that both "cnconline.exe" and "CNCEP1.exe" are both running as administrator to get rid of any extra issues, but I've tried opening the game via "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath\CNCEP1.exe" independently of Origin/without Origin running, had the game open, tabbed out, navigated to the cnconline.exe hook menu, ticked Kane's Wrath, exited the game, double-clicked my Origin "CNCEP1.exe" and had the CNC-Online app launch afterwards, indicating that the Origin shortcut has hooked to the Origin path correctly yet in the error log it still says it's trying to look for the steam installation path which isn't there anymore.

 

 

My CNC-Online Error Log:

 

----- C&C:Online Launcher Start -----

Game: Kane's Wrath

Kane's Wrath Install Path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Command and Conquer 3 - Kane's Wrath\

ERROR: CreateProcess() failed to start C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Command and Conquer 3 - Kane's Wrath\CNC3EP1.exe. Error: The system cannot find the path specified.

 

 

ERROR: Unable to launch Kane's Wrath

 

 

I'm not sure what else to do really apart from going into regedit and fiddling about, but even still I'd imagine it'd be a problem with "cnconline.exe" itself.

 

Any suggestions?

I didn't see the "Resolved" at the top to start with.   Did you fix the registry entry?
