RA3 NOT LAUNCHING

ra3 c&c online

I suggest you try reinstalling your graphics drivers.      There is not much more we can suggest because this must be a problem with your operating system, rather than the source of the games or C&C:Online.

Hello.

 

My RA3 and C&C Online have always worked up until I had to factory reset my PC. I have an Asus NoteBook Windows 10 AMD RADEON Dual Graphics. I reinstalled Steam, C&C Online, and RA3 the same way I did before. Now, the game wont launch at all. Not from steam, not from Desktop app, and not from C&C Online. I'm getting all the problems everyone is talking about. ( Literally all of them).

If I click on RA3 app, C&C launches, I then click on RA3, it loads for about 10 seconds and I get " Exception in exception handler" message.

if I click C&C Online, then click RA3, it loads for about 10 seconds and I get " CA public key routine failed" message.

If I unhook RA3 from C&C online, and then launch it from steam, I also get " Exception in exception handler" message.

 

Every time I launch RA3 from C&C online, either I get C&C online not responding, or another C&C Online window pops up while the other one is still loading the game. ( Game only loads for at most 10 seconds then either crashes or disappears.)

 

​I have tried all compatibility versions although it used to work just fine before I did a factory reset.

I have tried run as administrator as well, same issues.

 

when I bought the PC, as stated above, I installed the game the exact same way. But now it doesn't work!

 

What to do?

Thanks in advance!

Can you clarify if you can launch the games unhooked directly from Steam (i.e. do they work without C&C:Online). In other words, do you think this could be a problem with Steam?

I'm with the same problem :(

 

The following message appears when I try to connect the game through C & C:

 

 "Ca public key patching routine failed"

 

*My game is not a crack*

Yes, I have unhooked it from C&C Online. I tried launching it from both the desktop and steam. I get " Exception in exception handler" message. and game crashes. Desktop screen goes into a weird resolution/size. when I end the program, the desktop restores itself.

So now I have tried both Steam and Origins. Problem is still there.
