I found the first C&C game available for free the other day. I was quite happy to be able to play this old game again. Unfortunately, after completing several game mission, the game could not proceed because of some weird error.
After more than half an hour search on Google, I found a post on a forum, which I forgot to bookmarked, telling me that ctfmon.exe was the cause of all this. I tried killing the process and the game worked like charmed. So here I am writing about it on this blog so that I won't forget about it and may be it will save the next person from wasting his/her time.
According to www.neuber.com, "ctfmon.exe monitors the active windows and provides text input service support for speech recognition, handwriting recognition, keyboard, translation, and other alternative user input technologies." So I believe it is safe to kill it if you are not using any of the alternative user input.
Until next time
Cheers!
