How to Uninstall Red Alert 3

If you’ve Googled but found no useful information other than to delete the program folder, here is the trick. The entry to remove it from Add/Remove Programs (or Programs and Features in Windows 7) doesn’t start with Red Alert or EA. Look under C for Command & Conquer Red Alert 3.

Additionally, you will want to deactivate the game using the free utility (or CD menu) so you can play it elsewhere. Using the Support folder “Red Alert 3_uninst.exe” file is something else I did and all went well.

I was borrowing my friend’s CD (don’t tell EA), and after purchasing my own copy I wanted to be using my serial since EA only allows you so many installations before it refuses to work on new machines.

My new copy is now installing without a problem, thank goodness.

Happy New Year.
