Hi everyone , im doing a favour to my brother and testing can this game work online so i can help him later on his pc , and im having some issues.

I have installed RA3 and also installed C&C Online , but when i open the 'C&C Online' and press Red Alert 3 , or hook Red Alert 3 , i get the message "Red Alert 3 installation not found."

I have seen on the forum that this is usually a problem for C&C , so i went to the regedit and found that my 'INSTALLDIR' not path , is in the right place.

Nevertheless , i made a INSTALLPATH thingy aswell , and copied everything from INSTALLDIR , and it still doesnt work.
Can anyone help me? 
Thanks

Run the C&C:Online launcher as administrator.

 

If you have an Origin version...

Solution 1: To use the launcher with Origin games, run it as administrator.

Solution 3 (C&C3 & RA3): Go into Origin, click the game (in this case either C&C3 or RA3), click the "i" button to the left of "play", click "Game Properties" and check the box "Disable Origin in game for this game" and then launch RA3 or C&C3 via the normal C&C:Online method.

 

If you have a Steam version...


- I'm having trouble using C&C:Online with Steam.

- Solution: Open the C&C:Online launcher and use the Hook menu to hook your game. Then launch the game using the shortcut Steam made for it on your desktop (if you don't have a shortcut, go into Steam and make one). The launcher should pop up, so select your game and off you go. When Hooking, you should receive a prompt asking for your confirmation, this is how you know it worked. If you don't receive anything and the issue still occurs, check your anti-virus (Norton especially) as they are known to delete the hooking file. Add an exception for C&C:Online.

Reinstalling the game might help.
