After following this guide
Before you attempt any of these fixes, make sure that you have followed and done this:
Hooking procedure: Open the C&C:Online Launcher
On the Top left side of the launcher will you see a small button labeled hook
Click the hook button
In the now visible menu, click the game you want to hook
Close the C&C:Online Launcher
Start up your game trough Origin, Steam, GOG, or your DVD Shortcut
before the game boots, the C&C:Online launcher should open
There you click the game you want to play (IT HAS TO BE HOOKED FOR THIS)
the launcher will now start to start up your game, please note that it might take some time and even show "not responding" give it some time

and even trying to attempt to repair it nothing seems to get me past
**There you click the game you want to play (IT HAS TO BE HOOKED FOR THIS)**
after doing so i get a popup with a message

Unable to Launch Red Alert 3

pls help

I get the same issue.

 

Edit: Found this thread and got it working, just by installing the Launcher fix.

I'm now unable to launch as well. Been playing a lot of Co-op with my friend the last couple weeks. Then EA pushed an update this morning and I can't launch from the EA app at all. Gives me an error that the game isn't installed. Doing a repair or reinstall does nothing to fix the issue. Running CNC Ultimate Collection launchers from bibber no longer finds the RA3/Uprising games to even fix the launchers.

Then I spent the $6 to get it from Steam to test it, and that WILL launch, even with the Online hook. But then I can't connect to the Online services anymore.

My friend has been running the Steam version this whole time and the update killed his online service as well.

The launcher of C&C:Online has been replaced with Tacitus. These kind of issues are thus a problem of the past now. Please follow the install guide and join our Discord and ask for support in our #tech-support channel (within a new topic) there if you encounter any more issues.
