RA2 & YR Not loading...
And if it does (in YR's case), it crashes before mission start. C&Cnet doesn't help - If I install and run it, I'll configure it, go to play a campaign mission and it loads the game AGAIN - you can hear both instances running.

Anyone got a fix to get this thing running? I've tried uninstalling with Revo uninstaller and removed ALL files and registry entries and reinstalled, but this hasn't improved things.

I assume someone somewhere has a patch.

Shame this didn't work for me "out the box".

Which operating system are you using? It worked fine on my Windows 11.

Maybe worth to try to set that RA2.exe file in the folder to run as admin and/or to run in compatibility mode?

Win 11 pro.

I7 13700KF

4Tb HDD (I also have a 4Tb Samsung 990 Pro M2, but it's not installed there)

Same here. I just bought Ultimate Collection via Steam since my existing EA install decided to stop working (they added a new patch for... something?). I can't get the executable to launch.

Ok, so I had some luck...

Revo'd RA2 & YR, Rebooted, reinstalled, installed C&CNet, Started a skirmish and played it through, NOW I can play campaign in YR... Not tried RA2, but will update with how that plays out.

They applied the same patches on the EA App that are on Steam as well.

So I was able to blast through 8 levels of RA2 last night... Seems to work...

I'm wondering if it's an issue running Windows 11, inside Parallels, on a Mac with the M1 processor... It's annoying because I wasn't having issues pre-update.

Did you ever get this to work on Parallels?
