running windows 7 and this did not fix the problem for me.  all that happens when I try to run the program is it opens the folder where the files are located.

    @mleppelman

    You're running the wrong item.

    All games in the collection are separate items in your games list. The only item in there with the actual C&C Ultimate Collection cover art is not a game; if you look at the item's details you will see it is the collection's bonus material. It isn't supposed to launch anything, it just opens the folder containing that bonus material.

    So just find the separate games in your games list, and install and play them separately.
