C&C Generals Zero Hour Windows 10 fix

Hey Sarge,

I tried the fix below but still can't get the game running.  Would appreciate any help/comments you can provide.

First, Zero Hour runs only if Generals is downloaded.  Is there anything different (like your instructions below) that needs to be done when downloading Generals?

Second, just thought I'd let you know that I had to change my Folder Settings so that I could see hidden files and folders, and also hidden extensions.

As far as the installation process, here are problems or different results I encountered.

1. Step 4 of installation. You instruct to 'Right click on DatGen.exe and check off Read Only and click apply.' Do you mean that I need to ensure the Read Only box is unchecked, or that I need to check it since it wasn't checked?

2. Step 5. You state that there should only be 4 files in C:\Users\{Name}\AppData\Local\Temp\{F3E9C243-122E-4D6B-ACC1-E1FEC02F6CA1}, but I had all 25 files when I went back into it.  Not sure if I did something wrong at this point. I went ahead and copied the original files that I saved on my desktop over the existing files. But there were 3 files that the computer says were in use and couldn't be copied over, so I didn't copy over them.  The 3 files were ISRES.DLL, ISUSER.DLL, AND ISRT.DLL.  However, after I finished this step, I had only the DatGen.exe file remaining in C:\Users\{Name}\AppData\Local\Temp\{F3E9C243-122E-4D6B-ACC1-E1FEC02F6CA1}.

3. In step 6 I had to create the folder, but I did it as instructed (I think).  Did you mean that I should create a single folder called Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data or that I should create a folder called Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour, and then another folder in it called Data.  I did the former and placed the Options.ini doc in it.  Also, was I supposed to delete the original .txt extension?

Thanks -- I'd really like to be able to continue playing Zero Hour and appreciate your help.
