If you have your own original copy of the game, you can choose “Full CD installation” and “Install CD 2” instead. We recommend choosing “Full Web Installation” and “Install CD2”. You will be asked which type of installation you want to perform. Installing the game is then largely just a matter of following on-screen prompts. If you’re not logged in with an administrator account, you should right click on the installer and choose “Run as administrator”, otherwise just double click on the downloaded file to start the installation process. To get started, download the replacement installer from this page. The installer will automatically download (if necessary) and install both the game and its two expansion packs, Aftermath and Counterstrike. Even if you do have an original copy of the game, you should not attempt to use the installer on the CD and instead use the replacement Red Alert 1 Installer tool. Since Red Alert has been released for free, you don’t even need an original game CD to install it, though if you do have one you can use it to speed up the downloading process.

To install Command & Conquer: Red Alert, you should use the free Red Alert 1 Installer tool. To celebrate the series 13th anniversary, Electronic Arts very generously made several of the early Command and Conquer games a free download, meaning you don’t even have to hunt eBay or the charity shops if you want to play this one. While Dune 2 was the first game to establish the modern RTS template, it was the Command and Conquer series that really took the genre to new heights of popularity. Real time strategy games have always been popular on the PC.
