How do I update Flash Player ActiveX & Plugin from an internal server at once?

At work we're using both, Flash Player ActiveX and Plugin, because of the use of different Browsers. We have set up a Background Update from our internal server.
By updating via "FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe", only the ActiveX Extension gets updated and the Plugin doesn't.
But if I do it in that order: Install ActiveX → Update → Install Plugin → Update, both Extensions get updated.
Here's the mms.cfg:
AutoUpdateDisable=0
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
SilentAutoUpdateServerDomain=[our server]
SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging=1
Is there a possibility to update both Extensions from an internal server at once?

Hi Jak,
Normally, the Plugin will update about an hour after the ActiveX, however, I'm seeing some codes in the log file I'd like to investigate further.  Please provide the following:
Post your currentmajor.xml file using these instructions How to share a document.  Please don't copy and paste the contents, upload the actual file.
Screenshot of your server directory structure for the Background Updates.  See  How to post a screenshot in the forum
What is the version number of the FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe file?  The version number is in the 'details' tab when viewing file properties (right-click > Properties > Details)This file will be in C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash on a 32-bit OS machine and in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash on a 64-bit OS machine.
Screenshot of the \Macromed\Flash directory.  If 64-bit OS, post screenshots of both 32- and 64-bit locations.
Thank you in advance.

  • Updating Flash Player ActiveX / Plugin via SCUP / SCCM

    Hello,
    I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers, mostly with Windows 7 x64.
    Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin.
    But now my Problem:
    After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working)
    I figured the Updater works like this:
    First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins.
    First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled.
    But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error.
    This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before)
    How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?
    Thank you very much!
    Sincerely Martin

    Exactly the same issue here (see http://forums.adobe.com/message/6285043#6285043). We have stopped the deployment of that package since nearly every second client is affected by this. It seems that the installation package does uninstall the flash player ocx (both 32-bit and 64-bit), but does not install the new version.
    I remember there was a bug at the beginning of this year, where the install package did install the new version, but marked it as "failed" in SCCM software center.. Just a few days later there was a new package in SCUP with the same version number...

  • How to check if Flash Player ActiveX is installed

    Hello,
               I want to check if Flash Player ActiveX is installed or not in my Machine .
              I want to check through C++/MFC code
    Rahul,

    That is not a perfect solution. Because If someone does not have flash activeX installed and if he downloads only activeX component .ocx file and use regsvr32 <path_TO_ActiveX> then he will be successfully able to register activeX . So now pc is having activeX and still machine will not have C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash folder so checking only for folder is not a solution.
    Well after some research I found
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000}
    I don't know if it is a perfect solution. I am just going to test it on few machines.

  • Cannot install Flash Player ActiveX plugin

    It's very interesting that I am able to install Flash Player for Mozilla but not for IE (ActiveX). As I'm a web site designer, I need to surf my design at different browsers to ensure compatibility. I tried many of solutions (such as uninstaller, reset_fp10, ccleaner, registry cleaner) but still not work. I hope the attached install log file may help to find out what's wrong and the solution.

    Hello, I did not look at the install log. However, the first thing you want to do is go to add/remove and find out what of Adobe is listed there.
    When Adobe Flash Player 10 is installed and is listed in Add/Remove is says: Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX.
    List everything that is Adobe in Add/Remove
    Next list each add on that is in Manage Add/Ons and whether it is enabled or disabled.
    You need to know what you have before you do anything else.
    (I use an 8 year old Dell, running XP3 with IE 6 and I have never used registry cleaners or anything of that nature. I keep Windows updated and never once has Microsoft told me I needed to use a registry cleaner because I've installed an update or an upgrade. I was told long ago to leave the registry alone and have done so. This is just my opinion. I am not a programmer and would never do anything with my computer that I have no knowledge of. )
    Sometimes users go where angels fear to tread so to speak with their computers.
    Let's see what you have installed and what add/ons you have and go from there.

    I'll see if I can temporarily disable it.

  • Possible to update Flash without admin rights AND without internal server?

    We have numerous laptops and tablets that are rarely, if ever, connected to our internal network.  All of our users are standard users; our users are not allowed to be administrator users.
    Nonetheless, we'd like Flash Player to automatically update itself from Adobe's servers all the same.
    Is it possible to have Flash Player automatically update for non-administrator users without connecting to our internal server?  It seems like we could somehow use the Flash updater service, which runs as the SYSTEM account, to do this.

    try with this instruction:

    Thank you for reply..
    Actually i uninstalled the existing version of Flash Player from my Windows 8 PC, but when i tried to install the older version, it was not allowing me to install and was showing that my browser is included with latest version.
    Even i followed the below given websites, it didn't given any remedy for it.

  • Updating Flash Player installed under Premier Elements

    How may I update Flash Player filed under Premiere Elements 7? Secunia Software Inspector detected insecure version 9.0.45.0 in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0\Browser\plugins\NPSWF32.dll. Same for Premier Elements 4. After I updated Flash Player to 10.0.12.37, I still get these "insecure" notices.

    Same thing happened to me.
    I just copied the 10 version in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Help Center\Browser\plugins to the Premiere Elements folder you have listed there.

  • How to install old version of Flash Player ActiveX

    Hello,
    I have to install Flash Player ActiveX 10.1.x or 10.3.x because it is required by my application. 11.x version I tried made issues.
    I downloaded various 10.x versions : they all told me that this version is not the newest => I can only quit the installation.
    How can I avoid that message ?
    What does Adobe care which version I want to install because I have to ????? 
    Thank you for your help !

    Please run the appropriate uninstaller linked below.  That should allow you to run older installers without receiving that error.

  • How to Rollback Flash Player ActiveX

    Hi,
    I need to rollback my Flash Player ActiveX from 9.0.115.0 to
    9.0.45.0.
    I have downloaded and used the Uninstall Flash exe (latest
    one) to remove Flash ActiveX.
    I had closed out of all programs then rebooted my computer.
    I tried to install Flash Player ActiveX 9.0.45.0 but I get a
    popup that says
    " The verison of Adobe Flash Player ActiveX that you aer
    trying to install is not the most current verison. Please visit
    http:\\www.adob....... to obtain the latest, most secure version."
    First of all I have done the uninstall so how would the
    program know that 9.0.45.0 is not the latest even when I have
    unplugged my internet connection and second of all how can I by
    pass this pop up to install 9.0.45.0.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thank you,

    First solution:
    Documented on Adobe Flash Player Support Site:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402435
    Download the uninstaller for Flash Player from "How to
    uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control"
    http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157
    1. Select Start.
    2. Select Run.
    3. Type cmd
    4. In the command window, type the following:
    uninstall_flash_player.exe /clean
    5. This will remove all entries in the system registry and
    resolve this issue.
    Note: The uninstall_flash_player.exe file must be saved to
    the same directory that the command window is in, for example C:\.
    Second solution:
    Open the system registry, but do so at your own risk.
    1. Select Start and choose Run
    2. Type in ‘regedit’
    3. Navigate to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayer\SafeVersions
    Delete the entry for 9.0 on the right panel of the system
    registry
    Install Flash Player.
