I feel sorry that i do not stand any chance to help you.🥳☹️😪
My game wouldn't launch and when I tried running the .exe I got an error Windows cannot find 'file path\RA3.exe' make sure you've typed the name correctly and try again
By changing the exe's name to 'RA31.exe' I was able to launch the game (launch takes about 30 sec)
Origin/Steam doesn't recognize that the the game is installed though so I have to manually run the .exe
