    The "Covert Operations" are not named as such in the game. They are the items in the "New Missions" list. Same goes for Red Alert's expansions 😉

    Note that for Red Alert, there is an official but never officially released patch 3.03 (which was later leaked by beta testers) which does split the "New Missions" into "Counterstrike" and "Aftermath" menus, and FunkyFr3sh's unofficial patch is based on that version 3.03, so it may already fix that.

    I considered changing that in my own C&C95 v1.06 patch (which FunkyFr3sh also linked to), but the patch adds a bunch more to that list, namely the exclusive bonus missions from the Playstation and Nintendo64 versions of the game, and the originally-hidden easter egg 'funpark' minicampaign. So calling it "Covert Operations" would be kind of inaccurate in that aspect. Not to mention, the list is very commonly used to add fan-made missions to the game.

    Anyway, definitely install those patches FunkyFr3sh linked to. They fix a lot of the games' bugs and compatibility problems. (And, as I mentioned, the C&C95 one gives you a bunch more official bonus missions 😉)

I have the same problem. When installing Red Alert or C&C Gold through the Origin interface, the games install and run normally. But there is no option to play the extra missions included in Aftermath, Counter Strike, or The Covert Operations. 

How do I access these missions?
