I'm looking around on my computer for my RA2 and Yuri's Revenge CD keys. I looked around in the registry but couldn't find them.

The game is installed, but I've lost the box that I was keeping the keys in. If I can find the keys on my computer, then I can put them in a text file or something for safe keeping.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Also, I tried a few google searches, but this just results in tons of warez sites and the like when "cd key" is included. There must be someone around here that knows how to find the CD keys.

The EA website has a pretty extensive FAQ on Red Alert 2. I didn't see anything about the CD-Key but maybe you can try emailing them.

Good idea, I'll try that.

Anyone else got a tip in case EA proves to be a dead end?

I cruised through their forums and found this

HKEY-LOCAL- MACHINE/SOFT WARE/Electronic Arts/EA Games/Red Alert 2/ergc/

Sure enough, there's the CD key. Thanks for mentioning their site, I didn't think about a forum search until you mentioned something.

Cool. I'm glad you could find it. RA2 is definitely one of my favorite C&C games, although most purists say that the original RA is way better.
