Flash Player installed but not working....

had a virus 3 days ago which was resolved with assistance from Microsoft. Now Adobe Flash does not work (when I go to Youtube, it says I do not have the latest version. I have unistalled, restarted, installed at least 10 times. Sites still say I need the latest version. I do see Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X in the programs in my control panel. I have downloaded version 10.1.102.64. I am running IE8 (i assume 32-bit since it does not say 64-bit) on Windows Vista. I have checked the files in my windows/system32/macromed/flash folder and it show the following files:
Flash Player Trust folder
Flash10I.ocx
FlashInstall
FlashUtil10I_ActiveX.dll
FlashUtil10I_ActiveX
install
I had turned off my Norton AV and firewall. I have also made sure that all security has been set to medium at that java scripting shows as enabled...
Flash player still does does not work: says I need to install latest version on websites (youtube etc.)
HELP!!

Hi, I see you've been on quite a few forums advocating Firefox & Chrome. All this does is give them a browser that perhaps Flash Player would be performing as it should. But it doesn't solve their issue with IE.
And referring users to follow procedures meant for another user under different circumstances and computer configurations
is not in their best interest.
All you are doing is confusing the person, since the required information about their computer has not been obtained.
You may want to rethink posting referrals, I could do that myself, since I'm on a lot of threads here.

Flash Player installed but not working properly

I have Windows 7 64 bit, and run IE11.
I have Adobe Flash Player installed.
It works fine on my login (administrator) but my young Son can not watch video's, as it says Flash Player is not installed.
How do I fix this please?

Flash Player has updated to 11.87.800.175 today; is it working better?
If not, what means "not working properly"?

Adobe Flash Player installed - but not working

I have Windows 7, 64 bit, with Internet Explorer 11. On the day before Thanksgiving everything was working fine. I received a greeting on 11/27 and was unable to open it - I was told I needed to install Adobe Flash Player - assumed it was an update - but since that time I've been unable to open any of the puzzles on Shockwave, or cards from greeting card providers - probably some other things, but I haven't found out about them yet. Every time I try to open any of these programs, I get a message that I need to install the flash player. My control panel shows that I have Adobe Flash Player 15 Active X, 6 MB, version 15.0.0.239 installed and the add-on manager under tools says it's enabled - but it escapes me what it's enabled to do other than drive me batty and waste all my time. I've rebooted the computer, closed all IE windows, numerous times after uninstalling the program and then reinstalling it - all a waste of time. Is there any advice out there? Linda Kochefko, El Dorado, KS

is Active X Filtering something that should show up under Tools, Manage Add-Ons? If so, I think I had it earlier this week, but it's gone now. In my efforts to eliminate the Flash Player so I could reinstall a working copy, I may have uninstalled too much. It's not listed under Programs or under Tools at this time.

Flash player install but not working

Can find Flash player in programs to uninstall off control panel, but no where else, computer will not play any videos and ask to down load flash player every time.

Flash Player (with the exception of the sandalone "Projector") isn't a program. It's a plugin. While it does should appear in the Add/remove list, it's NOT located in Program Files.
You'll find it in C/Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash
and (on 64 bit systems) C/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash
What browswer do you use?

WIN 8 Flash Player Installed but not Working

Hello,
I cannot get any videos to play on my windows 8. It says that I need flash player, but flash player is installed and it won't let me download. I have tried many troubleshooting steps on the checklist with no joy. Please help.
HIckory

Did you check that the add-on is enabled?
Did you check that ActiveX Filtering is disabled?

Why does latest version of Flash Player download but not work?

I have a new Vostro PC, win7 software preinstalled on 64 bit machine, running IE10. Have had many problems the latest of which is Adobe Flash Player appears to have downloaded but does not work. When I try to view certain internet sources, I get the message to update my Flash Player. I have done all the 7 steps suggested by Adobe support to correct the problem. None works. What now? by the way when I checked the version supposedly installed, it was the latest, but the box next to Adobe plug-in was not checked. is it possible I need both and somehow the plug-in portion is not downloading?

The plugin is only required if you use other brosers like Firefox, or other software that use the plugin.

Latest Flash Player Install is not working

Hello, I need some help please. I have been through the install process at least seven times if not more, all previous versions of flash player have been deleted, and it is not working. Sites that I regularly use are still wanting me to install the software that I know I have installed. Even more frustrating is that there is no other way to contact Adobe about this unless one wants to pay $39 to speak with someone, which I refuse to do when it is their product that is not working right. PLEASE HELP ME!!

That one worked nicely. Thanks for your help!
I guess the installer from the main download page was just a downloader, and for whatever reason it didn't work for me.

Flash Player Installed and not working for Snow Leopard

I recently installed Snow Leopard a couple days ago and everything seemed fine, but now tonight the flash player doesn't work. I use flash player for my homework for my Philosophy class and all of a sudden it doesn't work, I don't get it. I've installed, re-installed, updated, etc adobe flash player and my mac and nothings worked, I don't know whats going on. Please help.

Sorry, I know nothing about Mac OS; all I can do is point you to the troubleshooting page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html

Flash is installed but not working

My mac has flash installed, but it won't work at all, and I can't seem to uninstall it.

This [https://www.google.com/search?q=nplightsparkplugin.dll&sourceid=mozilla-search&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8num=100&gws_rd=ssl Google search] has many links which indicate that LightSpark is a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) or even call it a "virus". ''And after looking thru the first 4 pages of that search I don't see anything that I would feel comfortable recommending as a "fix".
Now, the silly thing is that what I think would be the "homepage" for that plugin - "A free, open source Flash player" - http://lightspark.github.io/ - says that LightSpark is for Linux and makes no mention of a Windows DLL being available. IMO, a strong indication that you have Malware on that PC.

Flash Player installed but not recognized

I have been prompted to install Flash Player 11 on Amazon. I attempted to install it from your website. After following all instructions, it says that Flash Player 11 was successfully installed. However, when I go back to Amazon (or any other site that plays video) it says that I need Flash Player 11 as if I never installed it! I tried uninstalling Flash Player using your uninstall function from your website, then attempted to install Flash Player again with the same results: it says that Flash Player was installed correctly, but nothing seems to recognize it when I try to play video. Please help!

Flash 8 Installed but not working

I have two "administrator" level users on an Win XP sp2
machine. I upgraded to Flash 8.0.24.0 under user one and it works
fine. When I log on to the user two and access a site with a flash
movie it displays the icon telling me I must update to the new
version. When I run the Adobe flash test described in the tech
notes it shows a display indicating the proper Version but does not
show the expected "movie".
I tried installing it under the other user it failed.
Flash always worked on both users before this version.
Please help me.

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".

Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?

I'm using Firefox 3.6.8 (and sometimes IE 8.0.6001.18702IC) on Windows XP Pro, SP 3.
For some weeks now, I have been unable to hear any sounds on anything Flash-based, from YouTube to games at MSN.com or embedded videos on any site using Flash. Initially I had assumed it to be because of having QuickTime installed because I know QT likes to hijack everything. I uninstalled QT (and Real Player) and Flash Player then reinstalled Flash Player (and Shockwave Player just in case) and guess what?
Yup. Nothing. When I uninstalled everything, I used a program called Revo Uninstaller, which includes a registry cleaning option. I then used Abexo and WinASO's registry cleaners to make sure I got everything else that even looked like QuickTime off my hard drive.
When I reinstalled Flash, the following programs appeared in C:\Windows\system 32\Macromed\Flash:
Flash 10i.ocx (10.1.82.76)
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX (10.1.82.76)
FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.82.76)
genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll (10.1.82.76)
NPSWF32.dll (10.1.82.76)
KB931433
FlashInstall
Install
Flashplayer.xpt
When I check IE's "Tools" and look for add-ons, it says that Flash (Shockwave Flash) is enabled. I even enabled the other Adobe add-ons for Acrobat and such just to be sure. Firefox shows Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director both to be enabled. The Flash control panel settings don't help: I have all sites set to store about 100 KB on my computer to make sure there's enough room for everything but still nothing.
Before anyone asks, my audio drivers are up to date, thanks to the manufacturer's website. I have DirectX 9.0c installed and everything else works fine. I can play audio and video elsewhere with no problems. It's only Flash that's showing me this trouble and there's no hint as to what else could be interfering with Flash.
Any ideas?

Well, great. I tried the uninstall/reinstall before, but not with the uninstaller, so I was hopeful that this time might do it. No such luck. The video still plays, but no sound.
All the sound settings are working with everything else from games to media players. I set Windows' firewall to allow both the ActiveX and plugin for Flash, just in case.
In the Flash folder, I now have:
Flash10l.ocx (10.1.102.64)
Flash Util10l_ActiveX (10.1.102.64)
FlashUtil10l_Plugin (10.1.102.64)
Genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll (10.1.102.64)
NPSWF32.dll (10.1.102.64)
And the setup and text files that went with 'em.
I've also done a system restart since then and zip.
I went through IE and Firefox and looked for any file associations (like .flv) that I could manually change over to using Flash, but no go. The settings panels for Flash have all been set to allow YouTube specifically (as a test) and to allow 10KB of storage space for all affected sites.
Now what? I'm really not looking forward to a reformat and reinstall, but it's looking like that's what it's going to take.

Something is strange with your list of modules; you list FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.102.64), but this is really 10.1.85.3
I recommend that you uninstall Flash Player completely (using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), then restart Windows, and delete all remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash.
Next reinstall both ActiveX (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and the plugin (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe).
After that, if the problem persists, have a look at this page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83739.html
