Maps folder not working
Hi,
It would be nice to have custom maps, as most players play with custom maps. My problem is that I don’t have a “Maps” folder. When I create it myself and put the downloaded maps there, they don’t appear in the game. I don’t know if I need to force the game to create this folder automatically. I’ve watched many guides, but my game still doesn’t see the maps in the game. How can I fix this so that the maps work properly in the game?

Where do you have the game from?
By default the folder is located inC:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Roaming\Command & Conquer 3 Kane's Wrath\Maps
In some cases especially when you have the game from EA app its missing a registry key UseLocalUserMaps.
You will have to add this registry inComputer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath
See images below.
If you do not know how to do this you can also run the below tool to fix the registry.

Thank you for your reply. My game is from EA Apps. My Maps folder is manually created and I added the downloaded maps to it. I also added this key earlier: UseLocalUserMaps. I restarted my computer, entered the game, and still no maps in the game. There needs to be a MapCache.ini file in the Maps folder, I created it as well (as a non-text document) and the maps still don’t appear in my game.

I just checked it myself on EA app and it works, can you show a clear screenshot of the location in registry
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath

Found it, you put it in the wrong folder
It should be in here\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath
So twice \Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\
