Red Alert 3 crashing during Skirmish after attempting to fix

Hey there @Geraldb78

This is, unfortunately, a notorious bug with the game on modern systems. Some get it fixed, some don't. I would suggest trying the compatibility mode for Windows Vista (Service Pack 2). While in the Compatibility tab, tick also from the bottom the "Run this program as an administrator" if you didn't already. Other than that you seem to have already done really everything that tends to be suggested for this problem.

You could always try to repair the installation as well by going to the My Game Library, right-clicking the Red Alert 3 and choosing "Repair" .

@Geraldb78

Also, don't put 16-bit colour mode on modern 3D games, it'll only destabilize them further, if they'll even run.

I want to thank both of you for the response, it sadly still suffers from the same issue after the solutions both of you gave. if y'all have any more ideas? That would be awesome :D

Unless maybe an old cd copy or downloaded copy would be better to work with?

@Geraldb78

Uninstall the game, remove all files that are left in its directory afterwards, then try again.

THIS WORKED PERFECTLY!!! Thank you! I was going crazy

Im still having this issue 

uninstall the game complete 

uninstall anitvirus 

or stop all antifirus . windows defender 

then reinstall it 

it should work fine
