I have the same problem, I am runnign Win 8.1. I have took it too runa s admin, compatability mode, yet nothign works. I bought this today from WalMart, all my downloads went fine, installs too; however, it I can't play beause of the "***FATAL***String Manager Error!". This happened with the First Decade edition and now this. Can you guys PLEASE, I beg you, please fix this for us? Thanks 🙂
Is there a fix out there for this? Seems to be a common enough problem, maybe I'm missing something. I have a system that meets the minimum requirements and so far Red Alert and Tiberian Sun give me the "FATAL - String manager" message and the ".dlls missing" message, respectively. I've tried compatibility troubleshooting, repairing, updating, running as admin, and nothing has worked yet.
