I am asked if I want to OPEN (not RUN) the download to install Flash Player.

When I click Install now, I am asked if I want to OPEN (not RUN) the download. When I click on Open, nothing happens. Am using Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11. I managed to save the download, but when I double-click it, I am asked what program I want to use to OPEN it. It does not RUN. The file is install_flashplayer16x32ax_gtbd_awe_aih_exe . What do I do? Is there something wrong with the Adobe Flash Player download site?

I solved the problem by using Chrome. In https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ , I clicked on Do you have a different operating system or browser? I then selected Windows 7 and FP 16 for Internet Explorer – ActiveX . When I clicked on Download now, I was asked if I wanted to RUN the download, and it worked fine. My guess is that I must have some setting in Internet Explorer that was interfering with the download being able to RUN properly.

I do not want to save every file I download. just want to open a file and move on. I do not see an option to just open or run the download without saving.

Please give an option to just open and run a download without saving.
I have a bunch of the things saved in the download folder that I have no clue what all of it is. Please I do not want to save everything I download, I would like to just open a file move on.
Thank you.

sorry but there is no option like this.
but if you like you can delete them manually
for these :
1.open downloads from menu button on right or by simply pressing (Ctrl +J )
2.Then select the downloaded file you want to delete by a single click on it.
3. You will find a folder type icon on right side of that , in which you should click.
4. Then it will open folder where the selected file saved.
5. Then you can delete that file .
OK done

I am running IE 11 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit Service Pack 1. When I attempt to install Flash Player, it goes through all of the steps, tells me the player is installed, and welcomes me. I cannot open the player and it does not appear in the Start Menu, Task Manager, System Tray, or anywhere else. When I try to open a file, the site tells me Flash player is not installed. I have even downloaded it to a separate folder and ran the install with IE shut down completely. And Shockwave in ENABLED but in 32 bit .I have been trying to get this to work for about 3 weeks now. HELP!!!

Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable program.
If you need to open a local SWF file you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the file association manually.

When I want to open a PDF document The box that pops up asking if I want to open or save does not come up and it always saves. I need this changed.

When the window opens to ask if I want to save or not comes up it does so for WORD documents just fine, however, for PDF documents it never asks (it used to). Now it just automatically saves them without asking. I need this changed. I went into applications and changed the setting to always ask but it still is just saving, them no window pops up asking what I want firefox to do with the file like it does with a WORD document. IF I cannot get this resolved I will not be able to continue using firefox. I teach and I have students submitting articles etc in pdf format, I cannot constantly save all pdf files. I just want to open them, review them and then move on. There must be a way to change this so that the window asking what I want firfox to do with the pdf files opens.
thank you,
kkwright

Deleted it, restarted it. tried it again. no change. repeated the whole cycle. no change. thinking about uninstalling and reinstalling, but that won't reallyk change the settings.

When I try to open a pdf link in my browser I am asked where I want to save the file. I used to be asked if I wanted to open the file. How do I get back to being asked if I want to open rather than save?

When I play games and click on it, a window comes up asking if I want to open in a new window or it zooms in and will not play. How can I solve this?

What site is doing this? 99% of the time it is a problem with the headers sent from the web server.

Everytime I send an email in Outlook 2010, I get a message asking if I want to open Firefox Document E9B557DD-DAE3-4088-988A-9123DAC2AAC7.html. There are brackets around the number. It's extremely annoying.

It's extremely annoying. I had an issue with the latest version of WinZip, which I mistakenly downloaded and installed--it automatically zipped my files, which is not what I want it to do. I removed WinZip and reinstalled the older version, and then I started getting these messages. It also seems to be interfering with Outlook 2010 help--I get another message about downloading a Firefox document and it won't load.

I have a mac computer. I am trying to install flash player but get the message "install adobe flash player wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this." I do not use a password to open the computer.

I have a mac computer that uses no password. When installing flash player I get the message "Install adobe flash player wants to make changes Type your password to allow this. I can't get past this message.

Hi,
To change your password you will need to open System Preferences, then open Users & Groups, click on Change Password. Change your password to a temporary one, then when you have finished you do the same procedure to change it back, by typing in the temp password then leaving the new password blank. Hope this helps.

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're asking.
Facebook always wants to know too much, but you can ignore those prompts, or lie to it if you want. You'll notice that a lot of people work at 'noneofyourbusiness'.

Can I ask for the C++ LIB of Flash Player

Hello, Adobe!
Can I ask for the C++ LIB of Flash Player for windows.as I know, Adobe never support the Flash Player SDK any more.I want to make a Flash Player, but the FlashOCX used inconveniently.So I hope that Adobe could support the C++ LIB of Flash Player and the Instructions for using it.
Adobe can you help me?I really need it.

Thanks for your reply, Adobe! I am very happy that you have paid attention to my question. Thanks again!
Though my English is poor, I try my best to make you understand what I say. I am sure that you could help me.</:includetail>
</:includetail>
What I need is not a Flash Player SDK. It's only a C++ LIB. You couldn't open the codes in it, but some interface functions. Actually it is like the OCX, but it is static and used conveniently.</:includetail>
</:includetail>
Reasons:</:includetail>
</:includetail>    1. I want to make my own Flash Player in my application.</:includetail>
</:includetail>    2. I want to use it conveniently.</:includetail>
     3. You may say that I can use the OCX(Your FlashPlayer.OCX). But you don't know the OCX is used inconveniently. The last thing in the OCX I like is resizing for the OCX object. Its drawing speed is not the same as the EXE(Your FlashPlayer.EXE) when resizing.</:includetail>
     4. The LIB not only helps me, but also helps everyone. Because lots of programers ask for how to run the OCX in API.</:includetail>
</:includetail></:includetail>
Can you help me? What I ask for is only a static OCX and its running speed is as the same as the EXE. As I know, to make a LIB is easy to you. I really need it. I hope that you could consider my request. Thank you! I am waitting for the good messages.</:includetail>
