Generals Zero Hour. Launch issue.

the ultimate collection. origin

This is an easy fix; don't use the launcher to launch Generals or Zero Hour. Instead, install GenTool and launch the game from its ordinary shortcut. If you are using the Ultimate Collection, you should still install this first; C&C Ultimate Collection Launchers. Go to the full post

​"Zero Hour installation not found." I get it when I click on "Zero Hour" on C&C online.

 

I followed all the steps mentioned on https://forums.revor...ot-found-error/ . So on the 6th part of the guide I am stuck. I click play on origin for generals and zero hour. C&C online pops up. I click on Zero hour and it says the message mentioned above, but when I click generals the game launches and the gen tool pops up as well. Also, I am able to connect online just fine.

 

Microsoft windows 10 home.

 

 

 
----- C&C:Online Launcher Start -----
Game: Zero Hour
ERROR: Zero Hour installation not found.

Thanks for any help.

When I click the game generals and generals zero hour from the shortcut of the game(I am using ultimate collection pack from origin). It brings up the C&C online. I click on zero hour and I get the same message, "Zero Hour installation not found."

 

I'll try your way next by reinstalling everything.

 

Thanks

DIdn't work for me, same situation. Windows 10, using Ultimate Collection. I installed GenTools and installed the launchers.

 

The fix worked for Generals, but not Zero Hour. I still get the same installation not found error.

 

Do I need to reinstall everything?
