Installing Red Alert 2

[sPANKY43]

When downloading Red Alert 2 it keeps downloading the Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge version and it cant be found because I need to install Red Alert 2 first. How do I just install Red Alert 2 then install Red Alert Yuri's Revenge??

Our installer is neither Red Alert 2 or Yuri's Revenge specifically. It is simply wrapper to fix compatibility issues and also allow you to play multiplayer online. The error you're seeing implies that you do not actually own the game first. You must first purchase and install Red Alert 2 from a reputable source (like Origin).

If you do decide to play online, you can limit the gameplay to Red Alert 2 using an option in the game lobby (skirmish or online play). The checkbox is labeled "Red Alert 2". That will limit countries and units to those in Red Alert 2 only.
