Flash Player needs to be reinstalled every day

Without any specific cause, I have found that to view most videos I must reinstall Flash Player every time I start my computer whether I use Firefox or IE. Of course Chrome works always no problems, but it is not my desired browser- that's firefox. Once installed Flash works perfectly. If the computer is shut down, restarted or allowed to sleep, Flash must be reinstalled. I can't find any settings that effect this issue. Very frustratring.

What about if you tried those steps, and it's still not working? Have the same issue; flash keeps uninstalling itself, and tried that solution. Reinstalled flash, said it worked. Downloaded the thing from Windows, downloaded the attachment and extracted to the same folder, ran it as admin. Little DOS box seemed to work fine. Restarted the computer, and yet again, flash is missing. I get nothing at all when trying to view videos. Becoming very frustrating! Using the latest Firefox, Windows Vista (64-bit), and never had issues before. All was fine till quite recently (past week). So, what next?
Edit to add: Tried, after restarting the computer, to reinstall Flash Player, and no wit won't install AT ALL. keeps saying it's "already in use", and then trying to open multiple new downloads to install it. Becoming extremely frustrating.
Have also tried to install an earlier version from the site, but every time I try, I get the messagethat it can't install because it's not the latest version.

Flash Player has to be installed every day

Every time I turn my computer on, I have to re install Flash Player. This occurs on Firefox and Opera. I uninstall via the Flash Player icon, not just in Control Panel. This happened on version 14 and also now on 15. What is the fix? I run Vista .

Some MacBook Pro versions cannot be upgraded past 10.6.8; others are maxed out at 10.7.5. newer models can go all the way to 10.10. So it is important to know exactly what version you have--there may be close to 40 variants produced since the MB made its debut in 2006.

Flash player stops working after a few days.

I'm recently having issues with flash player on IE and Firefox each time a new version is released. This time the flash player stops working after a few days without any reasons. I have asked two other questions and I have tried the solutions but this time they are not working:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4617987#4617987
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4548211#4548211
Could anyone tell me what the reason is?
I also need links providing Flash player for IE and Firefox which are always updated. I need to first download the installer then install it offline not install it directly from adobe website.
Please help me solve this once forever!

In recent weeks many websites show "blocked plug-in". Clicking onto it reveals a notice that my Adobe Flash Player needs updating but I'm not able to do it because Step 3 of the update has "blocked plug-in" in it.

In recent weeks many websites on my OS X (10.6.8) have been showing a white patch with "blocked plug-in" on it preventing access to all of the site. When I
click onto it a message appears stating that my Adobe Flash Player needs updating and when I have downloaded the upgrade & moved to Step 3 I get
a "blocked plug in" on it as well. How do I resolve this issue?

When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
You can also try these illustrated instructions from C F McBlob to perform a full "clean install", which will resolve the "Blocked Plug-in" message when trying to update via the GUI updater from Adobe.
Use the FULL installer for 12.0.0.44: Flash Player 12 (Mac OS X)

This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with the Flash Player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
(1) If you have any recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media make sure they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.
(2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
(B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
(3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista and higher)
See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
Any luck?

Flash Player needs be reinstalled every time Opera is booted.

Every time I boot Opera, and when Flash Player is requested, a notice is shown telling me that the program is not on my computer, regardless of how many times I have already reinstalled it. This has been a consistient problem for a year now, but I've ignored in the past. This occurs with Opera 32 and 64 bit. Help would be much appreciated.

Can you try installing Flash Player from the following installer?
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_64bit.exe
In addition you might want to type in "opera:plugins" into the address bar to verify that plugins are enabled and look for the "Shockwave Flash" entry and verify it too is enabled.

Flash player request that I reinstall it every time i reboot my computer

I just uninstalled flash player using the adobe uninstaller,   following the   steps,   it installed successfully.
Tonight I got message up saying I had to install flash player to enter Game Ranger It reinstalls the same version.
Every time I shut down computer and come back I have to reinstall Flash player again. when I go to Game Ranger.   I uninstalled Game Ranger and it made no difference.   Other people using this site do not have this issue.
I have Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate and my default browser is Firefox.
I did deep scan on computer and have no problems, no malware etc.
Does anyone have any suggestions.   This worked fine until a couple months ago   now i have this problem
Thanks in advance

Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.6.1.629 is not Flash.
There are two different versions of Flash, the '''''ActiveX''''' version for IE and the '''Plugin''' version used by most other browsers.
1.Download the Flash Plugin version setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

How can I get adobe flash player to run without asking every time?

Every time I go to a site that needs adobe flash player it asks if its ok to let it run. How do I make it run without asking every time?

A possible cause is that you do not have the latest version of the Shockwave Flash player (16.0.0.305).
You can check that in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" ("Ask to Activate" or "Always Activate").
You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page:

This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Latest Flash Player needs to loaded everytime a file requires it!!!

Updated to Flash Player 11-15 (whatever it is) at least a dozen times and everytime I need to access a file that requires Flash Player to open, it automatically links to the DOWNLOAD button for FP!!!! This is ridiculous as I have done at least a dozen times in past 3 days. Although I occasionally use Chrome, I have been primarily using IE for browsing. Don't recall in past 25 years ever having a problem downloading an Adobe program. Tks

Can you try clearing your browser and Flash player cache to see if this resolves the problem?
How do I clear my Flash Player cache and settings?

Why does adobe flash player want to download on every website I try to go to?

After signingin to my website, and trying to go to another thru a visual tag, I get a message from adobe to doenload the flash player. Isn't once enough?? Can't the programmers send a tag to see if it has already downloaded the flash player??
I'm just an old fart, but they should get their heads out of the sand and put a tag into the add on tag to see if the flash player has already been downloaded. If so, continue with the site downlosd.
This crap just makes it harder to access websites.

That would be 11.
There are Windows 8 troubleshooting tips here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.h tml
But the problem is more likely IE11 itself. Aside from Vista, it's just about the worst garbage Microsoft has unleashed on the computing public, ever. They intentionally altered the "User-Agent Strings", which websites use to identify the browser and provide the proper content for it. Some sites ID it as a Gecko browser (Firefox), while others ID it as a Webkit browser (Opera or Safari). Problem is... when the site ID's it as either of those, the browser specific content supplied REQUIRES the correct browser engine... which IE doesn't have and never will. So, it then becomes an "unrecognized browser". The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon. In fact, since they though this was a great idea, I seriously doubt they'll change it at all.
