Flash Player 10.2.159.1: not updating in IE 9

I have IE 9 and Windows Vista 32 Bit.
I am attempting to update Flash to version 10.2.159.1. I went to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and clicked on Player Download Center.
I selected the update, and Adobe Get Plus appeared. Under Download and Installation progress, it shows 100.0%. Under Progress, it shows the full bar and under Status it shows "Downloading...". The program never seems to finish after that. After a considerable amount of time, I attempted to close that screen and it came up with a warning about stopping the installation. I clicked yes.
When I went back to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/, it still shows the Adobe Flash Player as 10.2.153 in IE 9. I ran the Adobe Uninstaller program, restarted, manually download Adobe Flash and installed (without using IE or GetPlus) and tested the version again. It still shows as 10.2.153.
Both FireFox 4 and Apple Safari updated correctly. Is there some issue between IE 9 and this update? I attempted several times with the same issue.
I have another computer using IE 8 and that updated to 10.2.159 with no issues.

I tried the 32 bit IE9 and 64 bit to no avail.
Uninstalled IE 9 and reverted back to IE 8, but still received the message that Flash Player wasn't installed on my pc, even though I've verified it is and it's the correct version.
My solution:
I am now using Firefox (version 4)...works perfectly and the most current Flash Player is recognized.
I think Microsoft and Adobe may have to talk to each other, as it's affecting Internet explorer and until it's resolved, I'll be using Firefox.

Adobe Flash Player 10.2.159.1 not installing on IE 9

Help somebody please. I simply cannot get the newest version of flash player to install in IE. Chrome is fine with its automatic updates, but flash player has stopped working in IE9. I uninstalled and tried to reinstall, no luck.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Re: Active X control for flash player could not be registered
I found this article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2000257 that talks about the requiremet of the same SeSecurityPrivilege to install another software.
It does not explain in detail how to set that privilege, and I cannot test it, as I don't have Windows 7.
Also, is your account really the Administrator account, as there seems to be several levels of Administrators on Windows 7.

Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.42 is the most recent version from Adobe. It is a pre-release version. I am using it without any noticeable problems.
The current stable version is Download 11.7.700.169.

I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player. It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!

You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
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 version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
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.

Adobe flash player 10.2.159 needed for nexus 7

i have a nexus 7 tablet .and to watch a tv show on the tablet it says this content requires adobe flash player 10.2.159 and when i hit download, it says it is not supported on this devise.what do i do?thank you.

Sorry, I could read only the first paragraph you wrote, then my eyes grew very tired and I couldn't continue. It is very hard to read ALL-CAPS postings!
But I understand that you need instructions to reinstall Flash Player; try this
download the FP uninstaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html and save it to disk;
download the FP installer(s) from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html and save it/them to disk - note that there are two different installers, the ActieX for Internet Explorer, and the plugin for all other browsers;
close all browser instances, then run the downloaded uninstaller, followed by the installer(s).
Now go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ - if you can see the Flash animation (rotating red 'F'), then Flash Player is correctly installed and working.

FYI: Getting installers for Flash Player 9.0.151.0 security update

There are different avenues for getting the Flash Player
9.0.151.0 installers mentioned in the recent security bulletin
APSB08-20 Flash Player update available to address security
vulnerabilities.
Most users may have already updated to Flash Player 10, and
any trip to the Flash Player product download center
(/go/getflashplayer) will only provide Flash Player 10. That site
always delivers the most recent version.
If you have installed Flash Player 10 and do not have any reason
to test or use Flash Player 9 then no action is required.
But, if you require Flash Player 9.0.151.0, how do you get
it?
Regular desktop users should follow the advice of the
security bulletin and obtain the EXE and zipped DMG installers for
9.0.115.0 from “Flash Player 9 for Unsupported Operating
Systems” (
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb406791).
The title might be misleading, but the bits have all been updated.
These same installers are also available in "Archived Flash
Players available for testing purposes"
http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14266
Anyone needing a version OTHER than EXE or Mac DMG
(enterprises who distribute Flash Player, folks who need MSI or MSP
installers, etc) will have to get the installers from the free
Adobe players licensing program. Any user completing the program
(which has recently been rebuilt from scratch) will obtain access
to the bits once approved. The approval process is very quick.
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/
The licensing site contains bits for both Flash Player 9 and
Flash Player 10. All have been updated to the most recent versions.
Some customers may be using the old licensing site links, and
they won’t see Flash Player 9 bits. We suggest that all
customers request either a new license or a resend of their
existing license to get the correct URL’s.
Again, if you have installed Flash Player 10 and do not have any
reason to test or use Flash Player 9 then no action is
required.

We are currently using Adobe Flash player 9 on Windows XP operating system. We would like to know if Vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player 6 Provided in Windows XP, could Allow Remote Code Execution mentioned in Microsoft Security Advisory (979267), is resolved in Flash Player 9? For more details on vulnerability please refer "Microsoft Security Advisory (979267)". I have been wondering for the answers from a week and I have even logged the same in forum which fetch me no result. Could you let me know regarding this.
Since we have security related issue with this please consider this call at high priority.

Adobe Flash Player Always seems to want to update when I reboot . Not sure if this is something wrong with my Flash Player or is Flash IS constantly being updated by Adobe. I use Windows 7 Ultimate and MS Explorer and FireFox Browsers.

I have the latest Adobe flash player installed but it does not show up in my add-ons or plug-ins on Firefox 3.6. In the plug-in check, it recognizes that the shockwave flash is up to date. How can I have the plug-in appear and be enabled on firefox?

I have uninstalled the flash player and installed it numerous times with no recognition by the Firefox plug-ins. I also have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it as well. I have also restarted my computer several times as well. The flash player is certainly installed but not working on Firefox. Thanks in advance for your help.

James j,
You have a different problem. Your screenshot shows "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed".
See [[Plugin crash reports]] and [[The adobe Flash plugin has crashed]]. If you need more help you should [[ask a question|ask a new question]] (start a new thread).

When I try to watch certain videos on my ipad2 it says Thanks for trying to access Flash Player. Unfortunately it is not available for your device because of restrictions that Apple has put in place. Can any tell me what app I can download to replace it.

Flash Player (Safari Internet plug-in) (not responding)

"Flash Player (Safari Internet plug-in) (not responding)"
I've been getting this message about every 10-15 minutes for the last week. I've taken to just leaving my "Force Quit Applications" window open so I can kill Flash Player as quickly and efficiently as possible. (It turns out that just doing that also force-quits the accompanying "Safari Web Content (not responding)" message.) Then I'm good for another 10-15 minutes until another opportunity rolls around for Flash Player to freeze my browser screen.
This problem started shortly after I upgraded to Mac OS X 10.10.3 (+ supplement) and Safari 8.0.5. I've downloaded Flash Player 3 times in the last week (most recently Version 17.0.0.169 earlier today), but to no avail. The only thing that seemed to help was trashing the Flash Player plug-in from my "Internet Plug-Ins" folder. But then, of course, I was SOL the next time I fired up a website that required it.
How can I make this problem go away?

Please try disabling hardware acceleration. See the instructions in the video troubleshooting guide for details:
https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html
If you're still stuck, please let me know.

Why does Flash Player keep sending me notifications to update to the version I already have?

Why does Flash Player keep sending me notifications to update to the version I already have? The result is always an error message telling me that the version is already running. (Desktop Computer; Windows Vista OS; Firefox; Adobe Flash Version 11.8.800.94)

I don't know; can you post a screenshot of such a notification?
Did you update both ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) and plugin (for Firefox)?
