    This apples to all games:

    1) Reboot your PC.

    2) Right click Red Alert 2 in origin client.

    3) Select "Game Properties"

    4) In 'Command Line Arguments' type: "-w"

    5) Tick "Disable Origin In Game For This Game"

    6) Hit OK and enjoy!

Can't get C&C 3 and KW to run from the Ultimate Collection.  Finally got Twilight and Generals to work, but 3 will not make it past the splash screen after selecting to load basic game or KW.  Icon shows up in task bar then disappears after about 30 seconds of the splash screen.  Clicked on the icon on the task bar it is said missing ssleay32.dll file.  I have tried turning off the Origin's in game, turning off UAC, re downloading several times.  I am running windows 7 ultimate 64, AMD phenom II processor.  Any help would be great.

    You don't have to turn off user account control. You just have to run the game as administrator, in the correct compatibility mode. For more info, see this thread.
