Ylati, I have looked at the administrator rights and fixed it. I used Run as administrator.

Version: The Ultimate Collection on Origin

 

What error do you get and at what time? Unable to launch Red Alert 3 via C&C online program. I already did all the steps from the common issues and solutions. I cannot start the CNC online application with administrator rights. So I have hooked RA3 on C&C online. If I start the game the normal way via Origin than I don't get the C&C online program.

 

I have played RA3 with a friend of mine via Hamachi but i have closed the program. I don't know if this is something that matters. 

 

Operating system: Windows 10 

 

Error log file

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

Game: Red Alert 3

Red Alert 3 Install Path: F:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer Red Alert 3\Red Alert 3\

ERROR: CreateProcess() failed to start F:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer Red Alert 3\Red Alert 3\RA3.exe. Error: U hebt niet de benodigde bevoegdheden voor deze bewerking.

Do you mean that you don't have administrator privileges at all (e.g. you don't have Administrator account password) or you mean that you can't find the option "Run as administrator" in the shortcut of C&C:Online?

Ylati, I have the privileges and the password. It is my own computer. I have found the place where I could chose for the option: Run as administrator but is grey so I can't click on it. 

 

My problem is: when I click on Red Alert 3 in the CNC online program I get the message: Unable to launch Red Alert 3.

Just to make sure, now you can start RA3 with C&C:Online and play online without any issues right?

I am also having a similar problem.  How exactly did you gain administrator rights?

Right-click on a program or shortcut and select Run as administrator.

You mean you can't find "Run as administrator" in the context menu? If this is the case, you may need to press Shift when right clicking.

Windows XP does not have "Run as administrator" option.
