Unfortunately, I don't think any of the developers have the origin copy of the original game, so I can't help you.

I don't have the origin copy, but maybe the steam workaround works:
[quote]It was asked so often. It doesn't matter which windows you use. In Steam rightclick the game in the library -> "Properties" -> tab "General" -> click on "set launch options..." and add the following in there:
-modconfig "C:\path\to\the\modname_modversion.skudef"
You have to adjust the path to the location where you extracted the mod to. For Steam it can be in any folder you want.[/quote]

Ok, maybe this will work for the other settings:
Remove skirmish.ini from your RA3 profile folder.
It's usually stored on this location:
C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Red Alert 3\Profiles\\Skirmish.ini
