Windws cannot find YURI.exe

Each time I attempt to play C&C RA2 YURI'S REVENGE I'm presented with the following error:

"Windows cannot find 'C:/Programme Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer Red Alert II\YURI.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."

I had been playing this game and I'm about half way through the Aliance campain, turned my computer on this morning and I keep getting this message.

I followed the location: C:/Programme Files (x86)\Origin Games\Command and Conquer Red Alert II\ which exists, however there is no YURI.exe.... there is a yuri.icf and YURI.par... but no YURI.exe

Also Red Alert 2 works perfectly.

    SOLVED IT:

    In Origin right click C&C RA2 and select Repair Game. (It failed)

    Disable AVAST! then Repair Game again. (Solved)

    AVAST! does not like YURI.exe. Just got to add an exception into avast and problem solved.

    Can you elaborate on what AVAST! is? I’m having the same issue and when I repaired the game through Origin, I clicked to play Yuri and instead of opening the game it opened up Origin.

    @kyle_18_Lail Antivirus. They're really paranoid about random executables these days.

    As a programmer, I've had to disable them just to test the programs I'm making, because oh no! The antivirus doesn't know that program! Obviously; it's brand new, I just made it, stupid system -_-
