Red Alert 2 Won't Open?

There is a way to get it to start. You have to go into properties and look under compatibility. Change the compatability to windows xp service pack 3. It ran pretty slow for me after I did that, but it did run. You have to click on the icon really quickly to get it to launch though.... Be warned after I beat the campaign, it no longer successfully launches.

I have the very same problem

Has anyone figured out how to get this game to work?

Me 2 i have the same problem 

i have the same problem, what do we do i didnt buy a game so it doesnt run properly?

so i thought i would install tiberian sun instead while this problem gets worked out, and now that doesnt work either it loads up, but then when you click skirmash it doesnt load anything up is just the background with no options to create game. this is turning into a great investment. please help

You people should really pay attention to um, all the OTHER topics around here.

The solution is to disable Origin In-Game.

Working fine on Windows 10 🙂
