On what?
I can’t a ‘proper’ version of RA2 or Generals that works on Win10. I have discs for both and tried recently, it was a no go.
Try this guide. I have the first decade collection and it runs fine on my windows 10 pc . bit of fettling with the compatability and .INI files but its all explained easily enough and i remember playing about with INI in original release as you can make the game quite silly\fun with unit strength etc.I can’t a ‘proper’ version of RA2 or Generals that works on Win10.

but i play windowed mode too, go inot the desktop shortcut for the game once you have done all the above and it runs, then right click on icon, go to properties, shortcut tab, and in the box "Target" after all the file info of where the game is saved, go to the end after .exe" and press space, then type -win
This will force game to play in windowed mode, as i found fullscreen sometimes crashed for no reason.

There have been a few ports over the years OpenRA is one there used to be another as well that I can't remember/find https://www.openra.net/about/
ETA this probably isnt the one being referenced but worth knowing about all the same. Also runs on MacOS and Linux
That's a brilliant link thank you. ETA this probably isnt the one being referenced but worth knowing about all the same. Also runs on MacOS and Linux

Bought it through here. https://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/command-and-conque...I can’t a ‘proper’ version of RA2 or Generals that works on Win10. I have discs for both and tried recently, it was a no go.
It’s just through origin, works fine on my 1080ti/8700k rig, running W10. You do have to edit a script to run past the 720p resolution size, but it’s fine.

Where can you get RA2? I looked on Origin and it's not there?
You’re not looking hard enough ;-)You want the ultimate collection, it’s £25 through EA...I paid £7 through CDkeys

How easy is that to run on Win10?
Should just work.I have the earlier decade pack and with a few changes that works on win 10.
Thanks to this thread and the link posted I managed to get mods working with the ultimate edition on origin. I miss the old modtoaster for easy switching and have to install/run them manually but great fun, and sadly a million times better than the remastered orginal - though I'm only really playing zero hour now. Love the generals challenges!

We will see how well it works for luddite like me!

Decided I've had enough of DIY and couldn't wait any longer so it's currently downloading 
looking forward to reliving my youth somewhat.
Done the first few campaign missions, however I'm struggling with my ore trucks randomly to-ing and fro-ing around the refinery and not depositing my gold! Have I done something wrong, built it in the wrong place or built too many trucks at once perhaps? looking forward to reliving my youth somewhat.Well I struggled through the first few campaign missions, but the further I got into the game the worse the stuttering and juddering got, on the penultimate mission and even scrolling around the map is a bumpy, jerky and frustrating experience, you haven't got a hope of trying to target a moving tank or coordinate an attack using a modest number of units.
The support forums are full of people with much more powerful hardware than I having exactly the same problem. It seems the developers have taken a 25 year old game that needed a 120 MHz processor and 16 mb(!) Of RAM, and with a little bit of visual improvements and a couple of user interface tweaks, made it too resource hungry to run properly on the comparative super computers of today! Quite an impressive feat really
I've asked for a refund based on the above but we'll see, got a fair few hours of playing time in before I had enough so it might be rejected, I'm not familiar with Steam on that front.
Anyone else had any similar issues?
