Command and Conquer The Ultimate Collection ATTENTION!!!!!! DOES NOT WORK!

@PowerOfArena 

Uh, so why does your thread title specify "Additional Content"? The Additional Content is just an item that opens a folder with bonus wallpapers and such.

As for the other games...

A lot of the games have been upgraded with community-created unofficial patches that fix a lot of their bugs and compatibility problems. You can find them here:

Command & Conquer 1:

• Nyerguds' C&C95 v1.06c revision 3 patch (which also adds bonus missions originally exclusive to the Playstation and Nintendo 64 versions of the game)
  Note that this patch fixes two quite common and completely fatal game crashes (top-of-map reconnaissance crash, stealth crash), so installing it is strongly advised.
• HD music pack, with stereo music for the game.

Red Alert 1:

• Funkyfr3sh's automatic Red Alert 1 patcher/installer (The thread also has briefing videos for the expansion missions, converted from the Playstation version of the game)
• Nyerguds' main.mix cleanup for TFD/TUC (Not really needed, but cleans up about a gigabyte of unnecessary files in the RA1 folder. Unpack in the game folder, run "patch_main.bat", let it finish, and then delete the files you extracted.)
• HD music pack, with stereo music for the game.

Tiberian Sun:

• Funkyfr3sh's Tiberian Sun patch

Red Alert 2:

• I advise installing the CnCNet online play installer for RA2/YR. Even if you're not interested in online play, it comes with a bunch of automatic fixes. It should automatically take care of the "black screen" issue, and has a configuration tool that allows further tweaking of the game's settings.

Generals:

• GenTool seems to be the main patch for Generals these days. The website is kind of vague on what it does besides restoring multiplayer and adding anti-cheat, but I heard it does a lot to make it work better on modern OSes too.

Renegade:

• The Tiberian Technologies patch fixes loads of issues on Renegade.

The games simply have their problems... it's just general "old games on new systems" issues. There's nowhere else you can buy them that will make them magically work better, especially since the DRM of the original CD versions is no longer supported by Windows itself.

I'm just a volunteer here who knows a lot about getting these games running, though. If you choose not to play the games at all, just because you don't want to look into the available community patches, that's your own business, but, me just being a volunteer, I have no idea how Origin's refund systems work. You'll have to figure that one out yourself, sorry.

The problem was that the  Command and Conquer The Ultimate Collection which we have paid for and downloaded is using another path structure than the one your patches are using or asking for...can you please do something about it ?

The patches will generally autodetect the locations of the games based on registry settings, and if not, they will simply ask you to specify the game install folder. So I don't really see the issue there. If the autodetect fails, simply select the install folder manually.

If you don't know where your games are installed, open the Origin menu and select "Application Settings". In the settings screen, go to the "Installs & Saves" tab. There, under "on your computer", you can see the path of the Game library location.

To easily open the folder in your file explorer, click "Change", and in the dialog that pops up, right click the selected folder and choose "Open in new window" from the context menu. In the explorer window that opens you can then browse to the actual installation folders of your games.
