Flash keeps uninstalling

Hi, I have been completely stumped by this, so if anyone has
a solution, I'd be very appreciative.
I received a message to update flash and did so. But since
then, Flash has not worked in IE7 or firefox. Essentially, after I
install it, it works, but after a reboot, it says flash is not
installed. I have to use the Adobe Flash uninstaller first, then
reinstall. It works again, but only until I reboot the computer
when it seems to have failed again. I have tried switching off my
antivirus (AVG) and windows defender, but this doesn't make any
difference. Has anyone seen this before and found a solution? I
have Vista Ultimate 32bit.
Thanks

I'm getting this very same problem - I've tried everything
including
resetting the registry with the subinacl tool.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

    ShockWave Flash keeps crashing, how do I uninstall it?

    Hello Teals58,
    see: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
    if you like [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Disabling_Protected_Mode_in_Flash_11.3 Disabling Protected Mode in Flash 11.3] and check it again, before uninstall, maybe works that way !
    thank you

  • Flash player uninstalling itself on Macbook

    I have the latest version of Flash Player (17.0) currently installed on my Macbook unibody.  For some strange reason it keeps uninstalling itself from my computer, and it's driving me mad.  I did a reinstall literally an hour ago and have just gone to Youtube to watch a video, and….a blank screen with no play button.  Just reinstalled FP again, but this has been happening most days for the past couple of weeks.  Anyone any idea what's going on?
    For info. I'm running OS X 10.7.5.
    Many thanks,
    roof30

    I've uninstalled FP and reinstalled again.  Run disk utility to see if any problems with FP and none came up.  Have repaired permissions on HD just in case and am now waiting to see if FP chooses to stay where put this time!

  • I do not want to upgrade to 7.0, I am attending online college and the upgraded version does not work with my school. How can I stop Firefox from upgrading? I have to keep uninstalling the upgrade and installing the old one.

    How can I stop Firefox from automatically upgrading? My on-line college is not compatible with the upgraded version. I have to keep uninstalling the new one and reinstalling the old one.

    It's not a good idea to allow websites to redirect to another site until you know for sure the original site is trustworthy.
    But if you still want to do it (again not a good idea).
    Tools>Options>Advanced>General - In Accessibility, uncheck "warn me when web sites try to redirect..." option.

I have made sure flash is up to date and the browsers I just recently installed seeing as this is a new PC so they are up to date as well. I disabled hardware acceleration about 5 mins ago, I am desperate at this point. Anyone have any idea what could be causing these crashes?

    First, I would make absolutely sure that you're up-to-date using Mozilla's [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugin Check]. If that doesn't help, you should try asking for support at Adobe, because unfortunately this is probably an issue with Flash and not Firefox.

  • Photoshop CS5 Tablet Driver Keeps Uninstalling by Itself?

    Hi,
    The tablet driver for my Intuos4 by Wacom keeps uninstalling. I find myself having to reinstall the driver every time I want to use Photoshop. Is there a solution to this?
    Also, Photoshop has been running rather slow recently when I use brushes. How do I fix this?
    I wonder if the problems are connected...
    Thanks!

    Ok, I'll see what they say at Wacom.
    Photoshop has been running rather slow, however, is there a solution to this? It's only happened recently, and I don't recall doing anything different.

  • Adobe Flash keeps popping up on YouTube videos, can't get rid of it.

    Cannot play YouTube videos, adobe flash keeps popping up, want to get rid of it, any advice?

    The app is usually the best way to access YouTube.
    You can try some of the 'standard' troubleshooting for Safari :
    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
