Hey all. Tonight, I wanted to play Kane's Wrath (Ultimate Collection, Origin) for the first time in over a year, and I couldn't remember the order in which to launch. I tried every combination, and it doesn't work. I launch Origin and the C&C Online launcher in admin mode.
1. When I first run the launcher in admin mode and then click the "Kane's Wrath" button, it opens a duplicate window. When I do the same in the duplicate window, it launches Origin, and then both launcher windows freeze. Meanwhile, Origin claims I'm playing the game.
2. When I try launching the game through Origin, it opens the C&C Online launcher. Then if I click the "Kane's Wrath" button, it goes back to Origin (then freezes), and Origin claims I'm playing.
To make matters more confusing, one of the launcher windows has a Kane's Wrath icon instead of the normal launcher icon.
I'm on Win10 x64. The game is hooked, and Origin In-Game is disabled.
Here's the log:

NOTE: The last entry in the log was after I tried unhooking the game and just launching it through Origin. When I did that, NOTHING happened whatsoever, except Origin still claimed I was playing the game.
I'm rushing this post out of frustration, so sorry if details are missing! Thanks!
