The Generals and Zero Hour games do not use the C&C Online launcher for online functionality. They use Gentool. It is advised to also download Genpatcher and apply all the fixes (it can also install Gentool for you).

Additional information as requested in the instructions are at the bottom of this post.

 

I created my account on this forum, set the server password and am trying to login in the game.

I added the hook from the C&C online launcher and this seems to work fine. When clicking start game in Steam, the launcher is launched.

In Zero Hour > Multiplayer > online > i fill in my emailadress, nickname and password.

After logging in I get the error in the screenshot below.

I confirmed that my password is correct, because when I enter a wrong password on purpose I get the incorrect password notification.

 

What I already tried to resolve this issue:

Complete re-install of C&C ZH, C&C Online and deleting all game files from my documents + clearing the register records for the game.

Manually changing the register key for the game by adding dashes to the key or even completely replacing the key with "0000-0000-0000-0000-0000"

Disabling my windows firewall

 

What can I try additionally to resolve this?
