Wow, 5 years have past and still no response from EA. I'm still not able to play Red Alert 3 because its installed on a PC I owned about 10 years ago, I believe I took it to the tip. Great support EA! Keep taking our money and then robbing our games from us!

Update - I've been a member of this forum for 5 years and EA have just awarded me with a BADGE! That's great, cheers EA, you're the best!!!!
@Lapinski I have to say, I like your sarcasm haha. But you will have to contact EA support (best is to do it by chat) to let them deautorize your previous activations to make RA3 work again on your new PC. Go here to contact them: https://help.ea.com/za/contact-us/?product=command-and-conquer-the-ultimate-collection&platform=pc (I selected the Ultimate collection for you, as that also contains RA3.) You can tell those guys you don't have access to old installations anymore and if they would be so kind to deautorize previous activations. 🙂 Can you report back if that worked. Btw @bubblemelon already suggested this; did you do that in the past?
I'm in the same situation... I bought this came when it came out long ago. Still have the box and cd key. Found it in one of my tubs I used to store my things when I moved. Installed it and to my surprise it won't let me play because of "security reasons" too many machines played this game. Who keeps the same computer for 10 years? NOT ME! I tried turning my internet off and it won't bypass it either. Unbelievable.
