command and conquer red alert 2. keeps freezing randomly
i have a problem with red alert 2 and its counterpart Yuri revenge freezing at random intervals.. i have to hard shut off the game ( sometimes log out of my pc to stop the program as i cant even stop it the other way)
my windows is windows 10 btw
(ps. also lost saves but maybe thats is because of a mod i tried to use)
Please follow these guides for properly installing and patching Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge:

If you choose the ddwrapper option mentioned in the "Handling Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge on Windows 8 / 8.1 / 10" section, do the following:
Download the zip file and extract "ddraw.dll" and "aqrit.cfg" into your game folder. Then, open the configuration file "aqrit.cfg" in Notepad, change the "ForceDirectDrawEmulation" option to 1, save the file, and try running the game again
