You do not need to manually launch them.

This is the first I've every heard of anti-nukes not launching. 2 things come to mind.
1. Make sure that you haven't powered them down/paused them.
2. Select the anti-nuke and them press the Ctrl key. This will show the effective range of the anti-nuke. Sometimes a nuke will fall just outside the range.

1: yeah I thought of that first but i wouldnt do that because the hard AI really "enjoy" using nukes! so i will always have at least two anti nuke launchers up and fully stocked (3 anti nukes) and i will also have 5 advanced fabs on them in order to replenish the missiles quickly! they're never paused in my games

2: yea i also know that key command and use it when placing my nuke launchers. when i have 3 they all have over lapping fields of fire over my commander (who is usually smack dab in the center of the red (or is it orange thats the middle marker? i couldnt say unless im looking at it) but ill overlap them within the second ring and make a almost perfect triangle of them with my commander in the center of second ring's overlap RIGHT IN THE CENTER OF MULTIPLE launchers and for the last 3 games ive played ive used this strategy and my commander fell to nukes each time. im going to keep playing to see if i can recreate it or it will just happen.

3: its just frustrating to get 30 minutes into a game and have plenty of anti nuke launchers protecting my commander only to have it end up being nuked /:

OK - 2 things to try

Although it should be the default, make sure you have the Modern Build installed
