Corrupt file problems installing latest Flash on Windows Vista - help please?!

When trying to install the latest Flash on my Windows Vista (I'm not great with computers so more than the internet system I use I'm not sure what other details are necessary), I keep getting the message "install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih.exe - Corrupt File. File or directory C:\$Secure is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility." As I have no idea what the Chkdsk utility is, or how to run it, can someone please tell me how to fix this problem? Apparently I have Flash Player installed on my computer, but not the plug-in necessary to play media files on the internet. What do I need to do to fix this?

This Microsoft help document should walk you through the steps of using Chkdsk to scan (and repair) your hard drive.
Check your hard disk for errors

  • Problems Installing Latest Flash Player

    Hellohello!
    My Adobe Flash Player for Mozilla Firefox has been giving me troubles these past months, so today I decided to install a more recent version on my laptop.
    Following the instructions, I deinstalled the old version before initializing the download/installation of the latest Flash Player. That, however, proved to be a mistake, as the installation has failed continously so far and now I have no player to my avail at all.
    I have tried installation several times, but the process didn't even start and just left me the message 'Aktionsliste nicht gefunden' (action list not found).
    I'm using a Fujitsu Siemens Laptop Computer with 32 Bit operating system and Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU processor. Windows Visa with Service Pack 2 is installed. So I guess the problem can't be due to a deficiency in system requirements and I also made sure that the required plug-in is activated and that any other version of the player is removed from my laptop.
    Being anything but a computer/IT expert, I would be very very grateful if anybody could help me out. I'm at my wit's end in this matter, have spent the last three hours scouting for possible solutions to this problem.. to no avail whatsoever.
    Thanks a million in advance!!

    Hi Laura,
    Most of these installation problems are caused by antivirus apps. These days, practically all of them incorporate web shields to protect you from downloading malware, files shields to prevent you from installing rogue pograms and the like. It's the file scanner which is the most problematical because it springs into action as soon as you run an installer of any kind. This interferes with the installation process and leads to file corruption further down the line.
    In the current circumstances, I suggest you proceed as follows. First of all, disable all antivirus shields. If you happen to be using AVAST antivirus, right click the orange icon in the systray and choose to disable all shields for one hour. If you're using a different AV app, look for something similar in the user menus. Then proceed as follows.
    Download the Flash uninstaller from here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Close all browsers.
    Reboot. This is important to clear the Windows Registry after you uninstall something.
    When the system reboots to the desktop, disable those AV shields again.
    Download the installer from here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax_32bit.exe This is the installer for Internet Explorer. When you see the prompt, choose "Run" to install it immediately.
    If you use another browser like Firefox, Opera, Safari etc., download this one as well: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_32bit.exe When you see the download prompt for this one, choose "Save" instead and save it somewhere you can find it afterwards.
    After you complete the installation process, go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ to check that everything went according to plan.
    You may require this player as well: http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ It's rather like an enhanced version of the Flash Player and you'll need it to play games where you have some interaction with the animation. You don't need to run an uninstaller for this one. Simply download and click "Run" in Internet Explorer where you want to install it in that specific browser, or choose "Save" when you want to install it in any other browser.

  • Problems Installing iTunes 10 with Windows Vista

    I am running Windows Vista (32 bit) and have installed iTunes 10. Any time I try to launch iTunes I receive the following message: "iTunes needs to be repaired to work with Vista. Use the 'Programs and Features' control panel to repair iTunes."
    The bigger problem is when I open the Programs and Features control panel, iTunes is not listed as a program. All of the other iTunes components are listed(Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update, Bonjour). However, I can see iTunes (version 10) in the C:>Programs Files>iTunes folder, just not in the control panel.
    I was going to attempt to uninstall and reinstall as numerous posts have suggested, however, since the program does not appear in the control panel, I have not been able to uninstall it.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    hello all , i got mine up and running late last night and thought that since it drove me nuts i would share how i did it with others having the same problem, for fyi i am using a sony clie sj22 and hotsyncing with an usb cable for reference with palm OS4.0 i think.
    1. dont install the software just yet please follow
    2.let palm desktop thru thye firewall program and make an exception for it there.
    3. disable and antivirus software as it sees palm as a threat.
    4.now install palm desktop i used my old version palm desktop 4.0 BUT DONT INSTALL THE PROGRAM IN PROGRAM FILES try somewhere else like documents( this i read on another site where someone tried it but failed there).
    5.now turn on your palm pda and open up hotsync page, up in the upper left screen corner touch the hotsync tab and down should come a sub menu, form here you need to set up all of your conduits,modem sync preferencesmconnection setup etc make sure they are set for how you will be hotsyncing.
    6.now open up the desktop program and on your toolbar you should see the hotsync icon click on this and set  set the options here.
    7.now you should be able to hotsync(communicate) from the pda to the computer .
    Hope this helps , sorry that some one like me had to figure it out by staying up late until i got it .
    MICROSOFT apparently doesnt care if you fix it that way you bite the bullet and buy a windows mobile device.
    and PALM i think about the same
    too bad if you think about all the millions of these devices out there they are pissing alot of people off and losing sales from it.

  • Problems installing PalmDeskto​pWin414e on Windows Vista 64

    My Palm is Tungsten E and my current operating system is Windows Vista 64 in Portuguese(Brazil). I did install the program PalmDesktopWin414e and at the end, after the installation completes OK for the Palm software, begins the installation of the Hot Sync and tells me to start a synchronization to complete the installation. At that point Windows Vista appears and try to install the driver for the new hardware and “looked” at: Windows up date, ask me to put the original disk, look for a solution at the Internet, and at the end says that can’t install the new hardware because could not find the driver for it and suggest me to contact the hardware manufacture. At that point I can open the Palm software but I can not synchronize, every time that I try it begins the same attempt to install the driver for the new hardware and again failure at the end. Unnecessary to say that all my important data are at the Tungsten E and I need to synchronize in order to keep using it. I would appreciate very much if someone could help me installing this device.

    Post relates to: Tungsten E

    Thank you for your quick answer Mr AlanG. I have to tell you that I did try to point to driver’s folder, and also to the original installation CD and nothing. Otherwise the final part of your message is the answer for the problem, “Palm Desktop isn't supported on the 64-bit versions of Windows XP” well considering that it won’t work on Widows XP 64 it is sure that will not work on Windows Vista 64.
    I want to remember that Windows Vista 64 is every Windows Vista version (Ultimate, Business, Home Premium, Home Basic, etc) installed in a modern motherboard.
    When PALM on http://www.palm.com/us/support/windowsvista/index.​html says:
    Palm Desktop versions 4.1.4e and 4.2 will install on Windows Vista and will synchronize Personal Information Manager (PIM) items including Calendar, Contacts, Tasks and Memos.
    It is not true because only will install on older motherboards that has Windows Vista 32 installed. You (Palm) should correct this because you are selling handhelds that do not work on Windows Vista installed on modern motherboard or you (Palm) should work quickly on a software that works on Windows Vista 64 and put it on the site for free download.
    Kindly

  • Install Oracle 9i on Windows Vista Home Premium

    I have a problem Installing Oracle 9i on Windows Vista Home Premium, I cant install it because it throws me an error message saying that is incompatible with my version of Windows. It is possible to install it with some patch or something??
    Message was edited by:
    user599646

    The only patch I know of is called Windows XP.
    In case you have not done any internet searches on this, even Oracle Database 10g was not compatible with Vista until Oracle applied some heavy patches and re-released it.
    And since Oracle9i is officially deprecated (nearest thing to obsolete as to make no difference) I see no reason for Oracle to backport the patches.

    YES, we should follow all pop-up dialog instruction especially Flash CAN NOT install with any open IE, etc. browser using Flash (see behind your open browser) if there is one open.
    The correct way to get Flash is to use your choice Browser (32 or 64 bit) or click the option that you have a different O.S., etc. Choose SAVE AS and remember where you saved it. Close ALL Browser. Find and click the downloaded Adobe Flash Payer file. Don't do anything with your PC and wait after final installation -- it'll tell you how successfully you're with a new web page. Restart your PC if it ask you to or better do it now.

    Initially iTunes would not run although it had been running quite well up until now. Suddenly received this error on PC start-up "The program can't start because MSVC80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." Research on Net pointed me to iTunes as the issue. Tried to start iTunes and received that message again.
