I tried running the patch as administrator, same issue. The disc was dirty which i cleaned properly, still a few minor scratches.
I was able to find a old version of the patch (rev2) and that installed fine.
I also downloaded CnCNet5 YR installer and that got me so i can play red alert 2 and yuris revenge but i still cant get generals and zero hour to run.
Would the ultimate edition be a worthy buy? any word on how well that works on windows 10?
