How to delete Flash8b.ocx ?

I got a new hard drive, installed a fresh copy of Windows XP,
and set the old drive as secondary.
I have deleted absolutely every other file from the old
Windows folder except Flash8b.ocx
I even tried booting up off the XP CD with the recovery
console and it wouldn't even let me CD into the old Windows
directory. I guess I'll just mark the old folder hidden but what
the hell, why is this so hard to get rid of?
Any ideas? I've browsed and searched on here but everybody
else is grasping at straws as well.

I figured it out.
Open Windows Explorer\
Browse to where Flash folder in
C:\Windows\system32\Macromedia
Hold Drag it to the folder of whatever user you're logged in
as, like C:\Document and Settings\Your Name
Make sure you're MOVING it, not just copying it. Hold shift
down while dragging if you're moving from another drive like I was.
Once it's in your folder, you can delete it.
Hell yeah! THIS WAS WAY TOO HARD BY THE WAY!

  • How to Delete Flash10c.ocx ?

    My
    Secunia PSI is telling me that C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10c.ocx is insecure. I downloaded the new version
    & I still get the error, apparently becuase the update leaves behind 10c.ocx. I can't delete the file from the explorer or the dos prompt. Even when I have no open programs I get the message that I can't delete it or change the name because some program is using it. How can I delete it. WHat might be using it in the background?

    Hello, I just answered this and if you would go to this thread it should answer your questions.

  • Cannot delete Flash32_11_6_602_180.ocx from an old system disk

    Hi, I am running a Windows 8 64 bit system with the most current version of Flash installed, whatever that is, since I blindly accept whatever update Adobe sends to me.  My problem is that I cannot delete the Flash32_11_6_602_180.ocx file from an old system disk where I have deleted everything else in the Windows folder except the Flash32_11_6_602_180.ocx file.
    I have seen very similar posts by Krischu on November 27, 2013 "Cannot delete/remove Flash32_11_9_900_117.ocx" and by Gdstuart on January 22, 2014 "How to delete Flash32_11_9_900_170,ocx," and I have tried the "takeown" method and the FileASSASSIN method suggested by MikeM to both of those posts, but my Flash.ocx file just won't go away.
    I am the only user of this PC, and my user account describes me as an administrator, but I keep getting the "You need to provide admistrator permission to delete this file" when I try to delete it.
    Does anyone know how to delete this file without doing what Krischu did by loading a Ubuntu system?
    Thanks for any thoughts!

    Well Pat, I definitely do filter what Microsoft tries to load on my system, for example, their insistence in trying to sneak in Bing. Either way, I keep my system up to date constantly.
    Do you understand that the file I am dealing with is on a separate disk from my system disk? I don't see any way that the OS would automatically delete files that are not part of the current OS.
    I took the disks from my old PC and installed them inside of my new PC. The old system was Windows 7 32 bit, and my new system is Windows 8 64 bit.  As I said, there is only one user on my new system, me, and I am the administrator, so there is no "original Windows Administrator password" other than the one that I use every day. The only thing that I can think of is that the file is linked to my old admin user name from the W7 system, but even if that is the case, then why wouldn't  the "takeown" method give me ownership?

  • Flash8b.ocx problems with IE

    I've been looking at the various forums but no idea how to
    fix my problem.
    When playing a particular game on the internet it frequently
    crashes and comes up with the error that it's a problem with
    Flash8b.ocx add-on. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash8 but
    with no joy.
    Anyone help?

    Just a quick update on the Problem Record (8543494).
    Whatever is causing this must be pretty major or difficult to
    track down.
    Last Friday (29/04) I received a pretty standard looking
    email from the support people asking if the problem had gone away -
    it hasn't. They then asked me to follow through what looked like a
    list of diagnostics :-
    1. Try using another browser to test if it's a browser issue.
    Flash and Shockwave player are also supported on Netscape and
    Mozilla so these are good browsers for testing purposes. Test out
    any rich content site on these browsers and see if you get the same
    errors. If no, then it's an IE issue and you'll need to
    repair/reinstall the program. If the same problems come up even on
    other browsers, then it's a system issue.
    2. For system issues, it can be any of the following:
    a. Conflict with other software- there might be other
    applications that use the same sound channel (for audio) and video
    card resources.
    b. Outdated or corrupt device drivers- Old sound and video
    drivers may not support the Flash player, so it is recommended that
    you update your device drivers. These are usually available from
    your device manufacturer's websites.
    c. Hardware acceleration is a setting for the video card
    driver which allows it to interact with some of your system's
    resources in rendering the screen display. By default, hardware
    acceleration is set to 'Full'. Turning down this default setting
    (one step at a time) often resolves display problems and audio
    issues. The steps for changing this setting are:
    i. Right-click in a blank area of the Desktop.
    ii. The location of the hardware acceleration control may
    differ for your video card driver.
    In Windows XP and 2000, choose Properties > Settings tab
    > Advanced button > Troubleshoot.
    Turn your hardware acceleration down one level and then test
    your browser with Flash movies.
    I had already tried most of these actions without any joy. I
    hadn't tried the hardware acceleration. So I tried it and found it
    didn't help.
    I've replied to support to tell them the results of the
    diagnostics and that the problem remains.
    I'm hoping for some inspired problem resolution from them
    soon.
    Simon.

  • How to Delete the dimension from the cube ?

    Hi ,
    how to Delete the dimension from the cube ?
    i have added the new dimension by assiging one characteristic to that dimension .
    now i  want to delete it ,
    but system saying that   Dimension ZXXX  contains InfoObjects; deletion not possible .
    how to delete it ? any help .
    Thanks

    Make sure you donot have any data in cube. If you have some data in cube, then you will not be able to see Delete option.
    Right click on the cube-->Delete data.
    Then double click on the cube>Goto Edit mode> select the IO under that Dimension> right click> now you will be able to see the Delete option (provided you have deleted all the date from Cube)
    Then right click on Dimension-->Delete

  • ADF Desktop Integration : How to delete the table in Excel?

    Hi,
    I am using Jdev 11.1.1.3.0 and Excel 2007 for Oracle ADF DI, I had created an ADF table using pageDef file in the excel. Now I wanted to delete that table and use a different pageDef file.
    I could not find a way to delete that table.
    I deleted full row of tables and then I used different pageDef file and created a new adf table. But when I am running this version of excel, I am getting runtime exception and excel is getting corrupted.
    My question how to delete the table not corrupting the Excel.
    Thanks
    Pavan

    Pavan,,
    Welcome to OTN.
    You can delete the table by selecting the top left column (of the table) and then select delete from the ADFdi tab.
    Refer the documentation for more info.

  • Reg:How to delete the column in table control also from database table.

    Hi Experts,
    Once again thank u all for giving the responses.
    one more doubt is how to delete the columns of table control and also the record shold delete from ztable.
    With Regards,
    Saroja.P.

    Hi,
    If you want to delete the rows in the table control and simultaneously delete it from the database table, then you can implement a 'DELETE' functionality specific to your table control. Have a MARK field (you will find that in the screen attributes of the table control -> give a name for the MARK field, you will find an additional MARK column at the beginning of your table control). You can check whatever rows you want to delete from the table control, call the delete module.
    "This portion of code inside the LOOP...ENDLOOP.
    IF sy-ucomm eq 'F_DELETE'.
       gt_itab2-check = mark.  " Store the MARK field status into your internal table's correspoding field 'check'
      MODIFY gt_itab INDEX tabcontrol-current_line.
    ENDIF.
    iF sy-ucomm eq 'DELETE1'.
      DELETE gt_itab WHERE check eq 'X'. "Your internal table does not have rows that you want to delete
    ENDIF.
    Now you can modify your database table using the MODIFY statement.
    MODIFY ZDB FROM TABLE gt_itab.

  • Does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space

    does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space, i wanna delete that... Actually what it contains

    Those are the data of the installed apps. Don't listen if someone says that it's an iOS, because it is not. On your iPhone, go to general > usage. It will show you all the programs installed on your iPhone. If you click any of them you will see how much of "others" it has (documents and data)
    There's no way to delete it if you want to still have those apps. You can reinstal those which has the most "others" but after some time of usage, it will raise again.

  • How to delete the films in VLC in my ipad?

    I sync some films(.avi) for VLC to my ipad via itune(I bought free VLC in ipad). One problem is too slow to see in ipad, many mosaic occurred. The other problem is how to delete the films in VLC on my ipad.. there is no any button to delete, only add button..

    But what if the videos don't appear in the list under the Apps Tab >File Sharing?
    They definitely are on the iPad. I can watch them with VLC. But the VLC list is empty when I select it. Most of my File Sharing lists are blank even though I can access the files I placed on there with my iPad. (Worse, Comic Reader has a list of files but none of those files are accessible on the iPad but a completely different set is readable on the iPad!)
    Any ideas?

  • How to delete the messages in the purges folder?

    if the mailbox is enabled the single item recovery, then the messages would move from deletion folder to the purges folder After running the following script,
    Search-Mailbox dave -searchdumpsteronly
    -deletecontent
    so my question is how to delete the messages in the purges folder with some script or retention policy?
    Please click the Mark as Answer button if a post solves your problem!

    Thank you all,
    As the mailbox is enabled single item recovery.
    I just want to make the items neither in deletion folder, nor in purges folder.
    So I think there are two ways to achieve this.
    Method 1,disabled the single item recovery. then delete the items in deletion folder ,so it wouldn't enter to the purges folder, it just deleted permanently. then enable the single item recovery
    Method 2,delete the items in deletion folder,then the messages move to the purges folder, then delete the messages in purges folder.
    the Method 1 is not so good ,as it need to disable the single item recovery firstly, then enable  single item recovery .
    So I want to use the Method 2

  • How to delete the open requests in the LBWQ

    Hi guys ... Can any one let me know how to delete / update the open requests in the queue . I need to delete the Open requests in the LBWQ...we are applying patches and for that we need to delete from LBWQ and RSA7...I guess there is an ABAP report which will deletes the open requests...Can any one let me know that report name please
    Thanks in advance...
    regards
    Edited by: sam on Dec 17, 2007 6:15 PM

    If your job control runs fine then best thing is to transfer the records from LBWQ to RSA7 and pull it to BW. If you do this all your delta data is intact and you do not loose any delta data. But if you delete the LBWQ you potentially loose all youre delta data. You can go to LBWE and start the job control and move data to RSA7 and then pull it to BW.
    But i am not very clear why you wish to delete this data ? If you do this then better you reinitialize all your delta data by following your normal procedure of filling up the setup tables and then initalizing in BW.
