Hello everyone,

long time Command & Conquer fan here, new to this subreddit and to this community. After tampering with a lot of files and downloads, I finally managed to get RA2 and YR working on my Windows 10 PC, so I thought I would make a guide for it to help my fellow C&C players.

This guide should work for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 as well, but I can't confirm because I don't have any copies of those.

You will need both original CD's (Allied and Soviet) and a working serial key to install RA2 with this guide. For Yuri's Revenge you need its own CD and serial key.

You will need about 2 GB of disk space and 250 MB of downloaded files.

Insert either Red Alert 2 CD (Allied or Soviet) in the drive. If the installation works without errors, you can skip to step 3. If not, here is how to get around it.

Create a new directory for Red Alert 2. The default directory for the CD installation is C:WestwoodRA2.

Open the root directory of the CD by right-clicking on the drive in This PC and clicking Open. You can also use Explore CD in the RA2 Autorun.

Copy the following files from the CD's to your new RA2 directory. All files must be placed in the same directory. You will have to do this for both CD's.

You need the following files from the Allied CD:

You need the following files from the Soviet CD:

You need the following files from either CD:

You need the following files from the INSTALL folder on either CD:

You need the following files from the GAME1.CAB archive in the INSTALL folder:

To open a CAB archive, I recommend installing the 7-Zip File Manager. You can also use the portable version. With 7-Zip installed, right-click on GAME1.CAB, select 7-Zip in the context menu and click Open archive. To extract the files from 7-Zip, select them, click the Extract button on the toolbar, choose the correct directory and click OK.

You can download the registry entries for RA2 from here. Select the correct operating system bitness (32-bit or 64-bit) and enter your RA2 directory and RA2 serial key without dashes (e.g. 1234561234561234561234 instead of 123456-123456-123456-1234) in the options on the left. To install the entries, click Download and run the downloaded file. Click Run, Yes or OK on all confirmation dialogs.

Download the patch here, extract the installer from the ZIP file and run it. If you did all previous steps correctly, it will install without errors.

The XWIS multiplayer client provides a legal no-CD patch for RA2. You need this patch to play RA2 on Windows 10 because Windows 10 does not support SafeDisc copy protection. You can also install this patch if you want to play RA2 without a CD on other versions of Windows. Otherwise, you can skip this step.

Download the Red Alert 2 multiplayer client from XWIS here.

To get separate files from the XWIS client, you can install it to a separate directory (NOT your Red Alert 2 directory) and copy them, or open the installer with an archive manager such as 7-Zip.

You need the following files (replace the existing ones):

Do not replace any other files! You may think updating all files is a good idea, but the XWIS client is MP only and some files do not work for the single-player campaigns. You only need these 3 files, which will work with single-player.

If you want to install YR, you should do it now. Refer to part II for the process.

There are two ways to play RA2 multiplayer: using the official XWIS client or using Red Alert 2 Mode with the CnCNet client, which requires Yuri's Revenge. If you have YR, I recommend the latter as it has more active players and provides some bug fixes from YR. To install either one, refer to parts III and IV of this guide. If you want to install both, I recommend making a separate copy of the RA2 directory for each one.

In addition to an online client, I recommend installing the 12 official map packs found here. All you have to do is download the ZIP files and extract them to your RA2 directory.

That's all you need to play RA2. To play the game, run GAME.EXE. You can create a shortcut to this file on the desktop.

If you experience errors or performance issues in the game, you may need to set GAME.EXE and RA2.EXE to Windows 98 compatibility mode (open the file context menu, Properties, Compatibility tab, Run this program in compatibility mode, select Windows 98/Windows ME).

Insert the Yuri's Revenge CD in the drive. If the installation works without errors, you can skip to step 3. If not, here is how to get around it.

Open the root directory of the YR CD by right-clicking on the drive in This PC and clicking Open. You can also use Explore CD in the YR Autorun.

Copy the following files from the CD to the RA2 directory. Yuri's Revenge must be installed in the same directory as RA2. If you want to have a RA2 installation without YR, you can make a copy of the RA2 directory now, before installing YR.

You need the following files from the root directory of the CD.

You need the following files from the INSTALL folder on the CD:

You need the following files from the GAME*.CAB archive in the INSTALL folder:

Note that GAME*.CAB is a multi-volume archive (GAME1.CAB through GAME6.CAB). You need a file manager that supports multi-volume CAB archives. With 7-Zip, you can open the multi-volume archive just by opening the first volume (GAME1.CAB).

You also need files from the TAUNTS folder, which is located in an blank-name folder in the GAME*.CAB archive. 7-Zip will show the blank name as a single underscore (_).

You need the following files from TAUNTS (they go in the TAUNTS subfolder of your RA2 directory):

You can download the registry entries for YR from here. Select the correct operating system bitness and enter your RA2 directory and YR serial key without dashes in the settings on the left. To install the entries, click Download and run the downloaded file. Click Run, Yes or OK on all confirmation dialogs.

Download the patch here, extract the installer from the ZIP file and run it. If you did all previous steps correctly, it will install without errors.

The XWIS multiplayer client provides a legal no-CD patch for YR. You need this patch to play YR on Windows 10 because Windows 10 does not support SafeDisc copy protection. You can also install this patch if you want to play YR without a CD on other versions of Windows. Otherwise, you can skip this step.

Download the Yuri's Revenge multiplayer client from XWIS here.

To get separate files from the XWIS client, you can install it to a separate directory (NOT your Red Alert 2 directory) and copy them, or open the installer with an archive manager such as 7-Zip.

You need to replace GAMEMD.EXE, RA2MD.EXE and YURI.EXE from your installation with three copies of YURI'S REVENGE.EXE from the XWIS client (rename the copies to keep the same names).

You also need the XYR.DLL file.

Do not replace any other files! You may think updating all files is a good idea, but the XWIS client is MP only and some files do not work for the single-player campaigns. You only need these 4 files, which will work with single-player.

There are two ways to play YR multiplayer: using the official XWIS client or using the CnCNet client. I recommend the latter as it has more active players. To install either one, refer to parts III and IV of this guide. If you want to install both, I recommend making a separate copy of the RA2 directory for each one.

In addition to an online client, I recommend installing the Yuri's Revenge cumulative map pack 5 found here. All you have to do is download the ZIP file and extract it to your RA2 directory.

That's all you need to play YR. To play the game, run GAMEMD.EXE. You can create a shortcut to this file on the desktop.

If you experience errors or performance issues in the game, you may need to set GAMEMD.EXE and RA2MD.EXE to Windows 98 compatibility mode (open the file context menu, Properties, Compatibility tab, Run this program in compatibility mode, select Windows 98/Windows ME).

To play RA2 multiplayer with XWIS, you need the no-CD patch from the XWIS client (refer to part I, step 4 for the installation) and the following additional files from it (replace the existing files) in your RA2 directory:

To play YR multiplayer with XWIS, you need the YR no-CD patch (part II, step 4 for the installation), the RA2 XWIS files (previous step) and also the LANGMD.MIX file from the YR client (replace the existing file) in the RA2 directory.

To play online with XWIS, you need to register with your RA2 serial key at the XWIS forums.

That's all you need to play multiplayer with XWIS. To play multiplayer, run either game and select Multiplayer in the main menu.

Download the CnCNet YR client here and install it to your RA2 directory.

That's all you need to play multiplayer with CnCNet. To play multiplayer, run CNCNETCLIENTYR.EXE or double-click the newly-created shortcut on the desktop.

CnCNet does not support 'vanilla' Red Alert 2. Instead, it uses 'Red Alert 2 Mode', a mod for Yuri's Revenge which is identical to RA2 except it uses YR unit voices and some bug fixes from YR version 1.001. You can select Red Alert 2 Mode in the server settings. Note that using the Yuri faction in Red Alert 2 Mode (which might also happen if a player or AI's faction is random) will crash the game.

If you experience errors or performance issues in the game, you may need to change your graphics renderer in the client settings. TS-DDRAW works fine in most cases.
