I've been playing C&C games with a friend, today we decided to play Zero Hour.
 

Firstly I loaded Generals By mistake but it all worked fine. I tried to Run Zero Hour and I get a message I used as title  of this thread. I get the message Error Zero Hour installation not found. My Friend is having the exact same problem. I saw in the forum Archive that someone else had this issue as well. He said he got his working but there is no steps or instructions on how he did this. So if anyone has any Ideas it would be appreciated.

 

Just to be clear we both have the game installed via the ultimate collection and it is the C&C online launcher that says Error Zero Hour not installed when it clearly is. I had Origin verify game files and no problems found. 

 

 

Update: Unhooking the Game from C&C online launcher lets me play the game solo.  When hooked so I can play online I get the  Error message.

You shouldn't use the C&C:Online launcher to launch Generals or Zero Hour. If you are playing only those games, you should unhook and uninstall the C&C:Online launcher and install GenTool. When you have done that, you just launch the game from its ordinary shortcut. If you are using the Ultimate Collection, you should install this first; C&C Ultimate Collection Launchers.

Are you using Win 10?   If so, please could you open Windows PowerShell (type PowerShell at the start menu) and in the window type and enter

Test-NetConnection peerchat.server.cnc-online.net -port 6667

Then post the output in here.   

 

However, looking at your location, it might be best for you to try using a VPN.   We have been recommending Windscribe as a free VPN and generally speaking people have had a lot of success with that. You get 10GB per month for free if you provide an email address and that should be enough for your playing needs.
