Can't uninstall Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.235

Hello. I can't uninstall Flash 16.0.0.235 no matter what I do. I've downloaded and ran multiple different versions of the uninstaller, I've gone into C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
%appdata%\Adobe\Flash Player %appdata%\Macromedia\Flash Player and deleted everything there and restarted my PC and when I reopen FireFox it's still there listed as being unsafe in the Add-ons list. Anyone have advice how to get rid of this version?

Check points 4 and 5 in https://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315
→ C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash also needs to be cleaned.

How can I download Shockwave flash for my IMAC?

How can I download Shockwave Flash to my IMAC?

Looking at Adobe's site there is version 10.3 for Intel Macs running OSX 10.4 or 10.5. There is version 11 for Macs running OSX 10.6 or newer. Most web sites don't really need the newest FlashPlayer, but if you are trying to view one that really does intensive video then maybe it does require Flash 11. You aren't very specific as to which exact error message you are seeing.
If a site does require FlashPlayer 11 then you will have to upgrade your operating system.

How can I stop Shockwave Flash from crashing?

For the last few days I have been experiencing a problem viewing videos on web pages. The error message "The following plug-in has crashed: Shockwave Flash" appears across the top of the page and all the videos are black with a white logo in the middle. This is an intermittent problem throughout the day - so sometimes I can watch a video and other times not. Needless to say this is very frustrating.
I have the latest XP version and also the latest version of Google Chrome. Today I unistalled all Adobe programs (problem still continued) and then reinstalled them - so they are all the latest versions.
I have browsed through all the help pages and tried some of the suggestions - but the problem still persists.
To be honest, I had never even heard of ShockWave Flash until Friday last week when this first started happening!!
Does anyone have an answer for me..... please?

Hello all,
I understand the frustration and we hear you loud and clear. We are actively working on this problem with Google and hope to have this resolved soon. For those that are crashing, could you navigate to the following, windows only, page in Chrome: about:conflicts
Once there, look to see if you have an software entry with the name "Rooks/Dolomite" If so, you might require an update to Trusteer's Rapport. Here's more info from Trusteer:
Dear Rapport users,
Thank you all for your feedback about our Beta version, regarding the Google Chrome Plug-in crashes.
It indeed seems we have successfully fixed the issue and so we have now finished uploading a stable version of the software that contains the fix you have been using.
This version is now available for download in the following link:
http://download.trusteer.com/Gcur4Wtnu/RapportSetup.exe
You do not need to uninstall the current version, you can simply install this version over the existing one.
Please make sure to restart your computer after the installation process is completed.
Sincerely,
Nitsan Bleiberg
Head of Technical Support
Trusteer
Additional details can be found on the following Google Chrome thread (see page 10): http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=0d782f19a7a1a9ec&hl=en
Another thing to note, after reading through that thread it appears that the latest Chrome beta might also be helping some users out. It's something to consider trying to if you're finding Chrome release is to unstable to use properly.
Thanks,
Chris

Can't update Shockwave Flash plugin

I'm only updating Shockwave Flash because the plugin page says to do it; otherwise I have no problems. The sequence of updating problems I am having is different from that described by others:
1) Checked for plugin updates: Shockwave Flash 11.1 r102 was highlighted as "Vulnerable" with red UPDATE NOW.
2) Clicked on Update Now and was prompted to download Adobe Flash Player 11.1.102.62 (not Shockwave Flash); Ran downloaded .exe file to install; Closed Firefox during install as requested and installation completed.
3) Opened Firefox; Checked plugins and now saw notice that Flash Player version was out-of-date and disabled.
4) As test, played a youtube video; Clicked on prompt at top of screen for "missing plugin"; Update self-executed, requested closing Firefox, and completed installation.
4) Opened Firefox; Checked plugins and once again saw that Shockwave Flash needed UPDATE NOW (as described in #1 above). Adobe Flash Player is not listed anywhere in the plugin list.
So now I'm back to where I was before, wondering if I really am vulnerable due to this version of Shockwave Flash.

Note: Adobe Flashplayer (aka Flash) shows in Add-ons > Plugins as "Shockwave Flash (version)", a bit of confusion caused by Adobe.
There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
*an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only
*a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox
*On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
'''''You have the Plugin version for Firefox installed, but the last two digits do not show. ''''' In Add-ons > Plugins you should see "Shockwave Flash ''(version)''". You can test and see the full version at Step 4, below.
Check your Plugins often --> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
*only the most popular/used Plugins are known by this page
*page will detect only installed, '''''enabled''''' Plugins
'''Install or update Adobe Flash''' 
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later. Un-check any items on that page that you do not want to download (i.e., "McAfee Security Scan Plus":
#*http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.
#Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
#To update/install the ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''', repeat the process, '''but use IE to go to the above website'''.
NOTE: Some users of 64-bit systems have found it necessary to download, Save and install (''with Firefox closed'') the 32-bit '''''Plugin''''' for Firefox manually from the following (''4th link labeled "32 bit Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)"''):
*http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_Install_in_a_firewall_proxy_server_environment
*or you can click here for a direct link --> http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_32bit.exe

Can't disable shockwave flash using "firefox/tools addons plugins"

I tried the suggestion from the support forum (3/6/14) to set shockwave flash to "ask to activate" but it still activates automatically following this change.

How can I uninstall adobe flash player?

I was required to install it when I was going to upload something on metacafe but now that I have I can't do a lot of other flash things because of it and there is like no way to get rid of it, so how can I get rid of it because the other sites I use are really important to me and now I can't use them.

You have to uninstall FlashPlayer to update it from a download rather than using the auto-updater.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
Note that Adobe requires you to uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Can't uninstall adobe flash

I am trying to install Roxio Creator on my computer and get an error message that indicates a problem with adobe flash, so I tried to update flash and that installation fails as well because it says that a newer version is already installed (it's not the newest version...it's 11.6.602.180). So I tried the adobe flash uninstaller and it uninstalls my firefox flash but not the one for IE. The uninstaller appears to work, but when I test the version using IE, it still shows 11.6.602.180. There is nothing listed in add/remove programs, so I am lost as to how to uninstall it so that I can install the current version.
IE is version 10.0.9200.16519
I am running Windows 8 64-bit and it appears that the IE version of flash is the problem. Rebooting between the unistall and reinstall has no effect. I have also tried to boot into safe mode to remove and reinstall, but the same issues as above. I have tried to uninstall/install by right clicking the files and running as administrator but that doesn't help either. I have also tried to disable all startup items in msconfig as well as using task manager's startup page. I have also tried disabling all add--ons in IE.
Any other suggestions?

Hi,
Flash Player updates for Internet Explorer on Windows 8 will be provided by Microsoft though the Windows automatic update feature.
In the list of updates, you will need to choose " udate for internet explorer flash player for windows 8 "
It will install flash player 11.7 for IE 10.

Can't uninstall CS3 Flash Trial

I installed the CS3 Flash Trial to check it out, as one does.
I now want to uninstall it halfway through the trial. Unfortunately
when I choose Flash CS3 in my "add or remove items" panel this
Adobe created installer comes up. With this installer I can remove
components but not the program itself. ARH. Does anyone know how I
can do this? Am I missing something here?

Can I uninstall Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX?

I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to Adobe Flash Player 11 but when I look in the Programs and Features, I see:
Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X
Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin
The Flash Player 10 Active X is an old version that was installed 2 years ago. Should I just uninstall that Active X? Or, keep it?

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X - This is the Active X Control for Flash Player 10 (Flash Player for Internet Explorer)
Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin - This the plugin for Flash Player 11 (Flash Player for other browser, like : Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome)
If you do not need Flash Player for Internet Explorer, then you can uninstall Flash Player 10 Active X.
Thanks,
Vikram

Shockwave flash 16.0.0.235 installed, it is a security risk, cannot update it

There is an outdated page on the Adobe Flash web site being blocked by Firefox 35.0.1 on Windows 7. Version 16..0.0.235 of Flash is labeled a security risk, "Always activate" is greyed out. I was on the Plugins page, and there I clicked the update now linktext. I was advised that all older versions of Flash in the version 11 range are blocked. Nowhere to go from there. (My screenshot has a piece off the Plugins page above the resulting page when I clicked on the indicated link.)
The outdated page being blocked was allowed and I was able to run through the download procedure, but in the end I had an error.
I repeatedly tried downloading install_flashplayer16x32_mssd_aaa_aih.exe, which downloads OK, and when I run it it downloads and installs Adobe Flash, then says Finish and "There was an error."
Glary Utilities software updater updated Internet Explorer's Flash, said nothing of Firefox, now I know why. This is a mess.
I opened up firefox -p and went to the new blank profile I had created sometime back. It was happily running a fully-enabled version 11 of Flash (I bet that wouldn't last long as my browser bites me in the butt and disables it).
Firefox -p and I created a new profile today. It has this crippled version 16.0.0.235 of Flash.
It appears that Mozilla has an outdated page telling me that all old versions in the range of version 11 are blocked. No word there about the more recent versions.
From what else I've read, others are turning to other browsers and coming up with a bad Flash, too. I only have Firefox (well, Internet Exploder, which I discounted as a piece of rubbish ever since they came out with IE 7).
Any advice? Thank you.

I've been having some Internet issues following an inch of rain around here. That's hampered my ability to respond to this thread. Please accept my apology.
First I tried the msi version of adobe flash and it failed with an error. I have screen shots. Next I tried the exe installer, and it just didn't start when I hit the run dialog.
Further, it seems that I can't install anything on here, as I tried to install Ad Aware. It got so far and said it couldn't install the updater. Avast! told me my Java Runtime Environment 8 and Java Runtime Environment 7, and my Flash plugin are all due for updates. Avast! reported both Java updates failed.
I will try to install another browser, and see if that, too, hits this "can't install" routine. Just for the sake of trying something.
I have "no malware," according to Avast! and Glary Utilities.
In windows 7, what log would I look at to find reasons for these issues?
Screenshots: Left: I ran the msi; Middle: It got this far and failed; Right: it reported this error on the finish screen.
Thanks.

SHOCKWAVE FLASH PLAYER

My computer keeps freezing after I see this notice at the top of my screen. What can I do? Thanks.

It usually comes up when I am on my home page....it will say something like can't load shockwave flash player, and asks if you want to stop it. A short time later it will pop up and say it has crashed. Right before and after these pop up my computer freezes. Sometimes it will be a few hours before I can use it properly again. Thank you for responding, Pat. I've had a few friends that are computer wizards look at it and they can't figure it out....
