Actually, I now managed to work around the problem (try at your own risk):
Delete the save file (make a backup first), located at "\Steam\userdata\<your ID>\1213210\remote\Player_TD_settings_1.bin". (I'm guessing that with similar issues related to Red Alert you should delete Player_RA_settings.bin instead). To be sure, you can just cut/paste the whole "remote" folder somewhere else. This resets your ingame progress (but not the Steam achievements, of course). Also make sure you disable savegame syncing for C&C in Steam before attempting this.
After that you can play again the mission(s) that the achievement is missing. The downside is that you have to play the mission again, and this is a bigger inconvenience if you don't know which mission it is or if there are many.
After doing this and getting the missing Steam achievement you can copy your savegame file(s) back. I managed to get my ingame progress back this way, but try this at your own risk! Getting back the saves I had ingame (under save/load mission) required some additional fiddling around (at first the "load mission" was still empty and I had to make some new saves and restart the game multiple times). Also remember to put the Steam savegame syncing back on.

@Tsarchasm5 Yep, I've done them all:

26 GDI
25 Nod
15 Covert Ops
10 Spec Ops (console missions)
5 FUNPARK

And I've completed the Secret Mission more than 10x already (not that it's hard or anything, just because some people said that's what was bugging for them).

@Joe_Flanagan Awesome, I was trying to find where the save files were, tried on my own but couldn't! I actually found a folder in documents but it was empty. This will help, I'll try it out after work!

  @AragarVarnusVery nice to hear it worked for you! Glad I could help. 🙂 I just finished the 81/81 achievement myself too.

Thanks for the temporary fix!
After changing saves, my achievement counter was actually higher than it should have been. I ended up getting the achievement prematurely :P
I finished all the missions and I was finally able to "Complete the Soviet Campaign"
I will probably need to do the same thing for Hard mode. My counter for that is also off. *sigh*

  @peteasaurus It's an option in the Steam settings for the game. Should be in "General", under "Steam Cloud".
