Flash player wont uninstall

i am having a lot of trouble with flash player. i cant seem
to view any videos or games that require adobe flash player. so i
have tried many times to install it but when i try it comes up with
the animation box playing saying it is succesfully installed. i
have read that this could be due to needing to uninstall first.
i have tried uninstalling MANY times but it just does the
same thing and freezes before completion. please someone help as
this is becoming very stressful. thanks

Thank You for the update, but I am not trying to install at this time. I don't have any problen installing, other than I have to wait for ever to view video. I am trying to get it (older versions) off of my computer so that my computer is more secure, and hopefully that I can watch video more quickly without the stall out of rendering. What I have found is that a third party says that I have a resident Macromedia Flash Player that I can not find to eliminate, and the uninstaller has not removed it at least three times. I have also found that there is a resident Shockwave Flash 8.0.24.0 (r24) program in Photoshop Elements 5.0 that has not been automatically updated by Adobe and also I have found a resident Shockwave Flash 7.0.19.0 (r19) program in Adobe Help Center that has not been automatically updated by Adobe. I will continue to look for outdated Adobe products in my file system and will manually delete them if I have to. I am missing out on alot of advertising because I can not remove these programs in a systematically simple manner. Thank You once again.
Q: Do we need to shut everything down to download the uninstaller, also?

Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work?

I tried to play a game I love & I got this message: "To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.0 or greater is installed" So I went to your site to update my flash player & hit the "Test Flash Player" button & it came up
like this^^. I went to the suggestions your site provided & went to Manage add-ons to look for Shockwave Flash Object to enable it:
You can see that it is enabled by this picture I have provided. So it also asks me to make sure that ActiveX isn't clicked on & so I did:
As you can see it's turned off & I even tried it the other way where it has the spot checked & it still wont play. So I decided to see if I could reinstall it onto my computer & so in turn I got this message:
That is the message I got even after trying to delete Flash Player & reinstalling it. Now you can see my frustration with all this. Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work? I have a Windows 8.1 Pro, I use Internet Explorer which has the latest version on it, which is Windows Explorer 11 Version: 11.0.9600.17498 & I was also under the understanding that I also had the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on this computer as well. Can someone tell me what to do??

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Hi
look at Safari-Help-Installed Plug-ins - does the flash plug-in show up there? just once? - could you copy/post the entry(s) for flash & shockwave here?.
Also look at your console & system logs after quitting/restarting safari & attempting to view those problem webpages - occasionally there's an entry there that helps identify the difficulty. If there is something - you might find this thread useful - esp the bit about rolling back QT
Finally ( for now ); even on single -user machines some people have found that /home/library/internet plug-ins/ folder has plug-ins inside it. Yours may well be empty, but if not - move the files somewhere else for now & quit/restart safari.

The normal installation at Macromedia was doing the same
thing for me but using this installer from there instead worked..
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_playe r_active_x.exe
I use a program called RegCure. Every time I run it, it
deletes the Flash OCX files as unused. Could be something happening
to
others too. Finally I went in and changed all the reported
Flash OCX/DLL errors to 'ignore' so that won't mess me up anymore.

I can't reinstall Flash player OR uninstall it.

I have a Windows 8 laptop and I use Mozilla Firefox to access the internet. I keep getting a message saying " Adobe Flash Player has crashed". I am unable to send a report for some reason. I updated Flash, thinking that is the problem but I still keep getting the same message. So out of desperation, I tried to uninstall it and was only able to uninstall Flash Reader (when I tried to uninstall Flash Player, I keep getting a message saying that I need to close Mozilla) I close Mozilla and STILL says I need to close it and wont let me update OR uninstall it. I am getting very frustrated. I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
Before Uninstalling, Can you please ensure no Firefox process is running in the back-end.
1) Open Task Manager
2) Find Firefox Process, and End the Process and Try Uninstalling Flash Player again.
This happens sometimes, you have your application closed yet an instance of the same process keeps running in the back-end but is not visible on the UI.
Hope this Helps.

Location of plugins
    Look into the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ directory and see if you have the below two files:
    Flash Player.plugin
    flashplayer.xpt

Web Browser is both the IE Explorer 9 and Firefox 18
Flash player is Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.146
I install it and then after closing browser I have to keep reinstalling it as I am looking at Youtube or speedtest.
I am running AVG I have tried the following
Uninstalling it via a link from this site
Running msconfig without any other applications
Uninstalled Google Chrome
Uninstalled any malware program and AVG
Uninstalled Real Player...
Please Help I am installing this program 2-4 times a day.

both have been installed
What happens is that when I restart computer the flash stops working , the applications are there but they dont work with the "FlashUtil32_11_5_502_146_AciveX.exe sybol has changed and I cant open it with the following error " Windows cannot access the specified device, path , or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
This does sound strange as I am the administrator and also have all permissions.
Thanks hope this helps

Cannot install flash player partially uninstalled

Dear community members,
I successfully installed Flash Player back in April. It was working well until a couple of weeks ago, when video clips wouldn't work sometimes, but did with a bit of coaxing. The sites affected were - Facebook, Iview (TV), Youtube,and my bank's website. The same applied when playing games. The situation has now degraded to the extent that I cannot access any of the sites listed, and get video/voice.
I downloaded the instructions to uninstall, and downloaded the .exe file and ran it (no problems). However, the instructions said to delete files in the system32\Macromed\flash directory, but when I tried to I was told I didn't have the right privileges. I have administrator rights. How higher can one Go?
I tried to install again, only to be told that Flash Player is already installed. How do I fix Flash Player, when I cannot uninstall or install it? Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Regards,
Gazza

You have Shockwave Flash 10.1 r82 installed already.

Flash Player wont run!

I have been trying for 2 weeks now to get this to work and am at my end. I have tried everything that is suggested to troubleshoot this and I cant figure it out. It started when I tried to play on a video poker web site. I had played just the evening before and when I logged on it said that I needed to download the flash player It shows that I have downloaded it but it doesnt install and run. Help!

Hello, follow sufferers:
I decided to start a Case with Adobe Support. I have not tried this yet, because I do not have another 2 hours to kill at the moment, but even if it ultimately doesn't work for me, it may work for you, so I'm posting the response anyway:
Thank you for contacting Adobe Support. I am responding in reference to
the Web Request posted on 14th October 2009 regarding, "Adobe Flash
Player".
As I understand that you are not able to watch videos and are getting
the errors regarding the Flash Player. I understand your concern and
assure you that we will both find a resolution for that together.
[Awwwww, isn't that sweet? So nice to be understood! I suddenly feel so confident that we'll work together towards a resolution!! ~ HS]
As you said that you have already tried to uninstall and then reinstall
the Flash Player. Sometimes what happens is that after the uninstall
some components are left in the system and when reinstalled it will
create the same errors. So, I would suggest to follow the link given
below and download and run the utility to remove the Flash Player and
ActiveX control:
http://go.adobe.com/kb/ts_tn_14157_en-us
Please download and run the utility for MAC. After you have done that
please download and install the Flash Player 10 from the link given
below:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=BUIGP
This should resolve all the issues you are facing, however, if doesn't
get resolved, please follow the link below to troubleshoot the error:
http://go.adobe.com/kb/ts_tn_19166_en-us
