I feel like this would be a common problem yet cant find any thread on it. i can run the game on its own without C&C online, but when i try to hook them it gives me "unable to launch" downloaded the origin copy though i have it in a different drive then default one, Also doesn't help origin wont install game proper for me not sure how I'm getting it to fully run with that error message through origin but through direct exe i can run it

You should have generated an error log when you tried to launch the hooked game.    Please could I see that; see How to Report Issues  for instructions.

Uninstalling the game from Windows Control Panel and then installing it again would probably help.    Before you do that, you say you can run the game without the launcher. Please could you tell me the exact path where Red3.exe (the one you can use to launch the game successfully) is to be found?    I'll see if there is a way round this.

Before you reinstall, we can try another solution, which I will send you by PM. If anyone else wants that solution to try, please make your own topic and post your error log.
