Command and Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight - Does not load through Origin client; constant error message

I have found no support for Command and Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight on either the EA or C&C websites; so I am hoping posting here will do the trick.  I have found no patch information, though Internet searches reveal that something might have existed at one point in history somewhere.  The Forums at the C&C website are... useless.  And the EA Advisor I waited an hour to chat with online was clearly not American; and her advice was for me to reinstall the product, which removed it from my system entirely, meaning that I have to re-download it to this computer again.  (5 GB for me takes several hours, unfortunately.)

Whenever I try to play Command and Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight, I have to wait a few moments before receiving this message below:

Unhandled Exception : System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The requested operation requires elevation
  at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithCreateProcess(  ProcessStartInfo startInfo)
  at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start()

  at System.Windows.Threading.ExceptionWrapper.TryCatch  When(Object source, Delegate callback, Object args, Boolean isSingleParameter, Delegate catchHandler)


This error message pops up on both my Win 7 64-bit computers (every time), so C&C4: TT is unplayable on both systems.  And no, Compatibility Mode does nothing to help - I tried.  (But why should I have?  Didn't C&C4 come out in 2010 for Vista/Windows 7?)

At this point, after I download the game again overnight while I sleep, I was wondering if anyone knew what the problem is that I am having as well as to resolve it.  I bought the game through the Origin client, have it in my Games Library, and I simply cannot play it.  I just need support for this item.

Thank you very much.

  • Hey, i had that problem too...

    You need to right click the game (either in the start menu or in the folder where it's installed to) and run as administrator for the first time u start the game...

    Hope this helps you!

    This doesn't apply to me, I run it as an admin and it still shows the same error.
