I finally solved it by removing the main Red Alert 3 program folder from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games"

 

and paste it in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts". Which I created moments before.

 

 

But before that (which I'm sure didn't work) was the 1.2 patch upgrade and the reg edit. 

 

And I'm currently running Win 10 in vista compatibility mode which is probably making no difference but hey..

HI guys,

 

I fixed the problem. the last guy had it right. You have to look at his screenshot. For me, I had to also add 2 string values in the registry to mimic what he had but with my profile name instead. After restarting Origin and going to custom maps they were FINALLY there. yes you have to go to your roaming folder and add the maps folder with the maps in it. And yes you have to modify the registry because EA is lame. I've attached mine. the Reg Dword is 32 bit and the 2 strings below are just string values. The last one is my profile name, use your own.

I tried everything and didn't work, until i modify this registry Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath, as instructed, the maps are showing now in skirmish maps, but not in custom maps, which works for me. Modifying only this Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3 TW and KW, didn't work
