Flash player update/install failure

I know this probably has been answered but I need help. I have xp sp3, ie 8. Flash player worked last night, got notice to up date. Loaded installer, tried loading the newest version and got "active x control can not be registered". I checked and no flash player is installed, turned off norton 360, checked ie settings and they are all as the troublle shooting steps say they should be. I dont really want to pay someone $36 who I will have trouble communicateing with. Please help.

I can only imagine that the reason you're seeing that message then is because the ActiveX control is already registered which prevents you from registering it again.
So what you could try is to unregister it and then run the installation again. To unregister the Flash ActiveX control, go to Start | Run and then copy/paste the following into the Run field and click OK: regsvr32 /u C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Director\SwDir.dll
You should get a message telling you that the file SwDir.dll has been successfully unregistered.
If it says that it can't find SwDir.dll, make sure that the operating system can see file extensions. To check that, launch Windows Explorer (CTRL+E) and on the top line, click Tools | Folder Options | View. In the list. Make sure that "Show Hidden Files and Folders" is checkmarked. If there's a checkmark in "Hide Extensions For Known File Types" which is the next option down, remove it, then Apply/OK and then run the command again.
Could you also check to see if this file is present on your PC: Flash9.ocx It will be located in C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9.ocx if it is.
I don't think you'll find it because it belongs to Flash player v9.0, but you never know.

I have OSX 10.9.4, Safari 7.0.5, and the latest flash player download and still get plug in failure. How can I fix this?

I have OSX 10.9.4 , Safari 7.0.5, and the latest version of Adobe flash player. I have tried all the uninstall and install fixes and I still get flash player failure. Any other fixes?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Flash won't work very well, if at all, but it shouldn't crash. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Flash Player 10 Install Failure

The current firefox installer download and installed for FIrefox seems to be malfunctioning. I initially took the support call from one of my clients but was able to duplicate it, and continue to duplicate it on my Windows 7 PC running the latest version of Firefox.
Even going out on google and trying a manual install, details listed below was unsuccessful. Upon going though the manual procedures youtube.com which I use as a Flash testing area still comes up and says I need to install Flash PLayer 10. Here are the manual instructions I found below:
Download the XPI archive of the Flash Player Plugin to your hard disk (right click on the download link then "Save link as.."). XPI archives are only ZIP files containing the files used by the plugins.
So you can safely rename the file you just downloaded, called flashplayer-win.xpi, into flashplayer-win.zip (you are changing its extension from .xpi to .zip)
Extract the files in the archive. You can use any program capable of opening .zip files (WinZip, WinRAR or the free and great 7-zip). There are also websites which can uncompress archives: wobzip.org.
Copy the files flashplayer.xpt and NPSWF32.dll to %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Plugins\
%APPDATA% is not a real folder. It's an alias. By inserting it in your windows explorer address bar, you'll be redirected to the real folder which holds your applications profiles and settings. The location of this folder depends on various setting that's why we need the alias and not an absolute path.
You can open this folder simply choosing "Start → Run → Type in %APPDATA% → OK".
In case you don't have a Plugins folder you can create one and place your files there.
Restart Firefox
Enjoy your flash websites!
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've never had this installtion issue before with Firefox in the past, on my Windows or my MAC

This problem is now resolved, thanks to the kind assistance of Klaus Hartnegg [mailto:[email protected]]
searched my computer for *.msi and found "install_flash_player_15_active_x.msi",
Moved it to the directory with "install_flash_player_10_active_x.msi". deleted the 10, renamed 15 to 10 (to fool the QB installer),
deleted HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayer\SafeVersions from the registry.
The Quick Books Premier 2011 installed normally.

Latest Flash Player Wont Install

I can NOT seem to get flash installed on my computer. I went to download the current version and I am getting this error "The installation encountered errors: No error information is available." I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I get this error whenever I try installing the current version or the beta 11 version. Appearently there is some version installed on my machine because I can see it listed on my installed programs list however, I dont know if it is corrupt or not, but it doesnt work either. I can't even uninstall it because I get the same error.
I saw someone suggested in another post to copy / paste the contents of FlashInstall so here is what is in my file if it helps.

Thank you for posting the FlashInstall.log file; this is helpful.
Are you installing Flash Player as an Administrator user?
It seems that the installer is unable to access a certain key in the registry.
Can you download the uninstallers
for 10.3 from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
for FP 11 from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer11.html (near the bottom of the page)
and run them as Administrator?
If the uninstalls go fine, try installing any of the versions again.
If you still have problems, how versed are you, e.g. editing the Windows registry?

Has anyone scanned the latest flash player download for firefox

I was wondering if anyone else has scanned a copy of the latest file dowloaded from adobe flash player for Firefox. I ran a scan from www.virustotal.com and it picked up a single virus detection called Win32.Corrupt.Ag by eSafe.
Here are the results from the www.virustotal.com
http://www.virustotal.com/file-scan/report.html?id=a2ad37e954618e15c2cdcc2ed427b6325d4b259 c0ca035c859246d427ccc3a38-1303230368
Thanks in advance

I ran the downloaded file on www.virusotal.com and this time it came out clean. Apparently eSafe had updated their virus definitions and it was a false positive. Interesting when you run across these sort of things.
Here are the results of the exact same file. However the scan was done a few days later.

Latest Flasher Player download infected with Luhe.Packed.C virus??

I'm trying to download Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Reader onto a new (out-of-the box) Pc. Our FireWall stops the download because it's tagging both files as having the Luhe.Packed.C virus.
Is there a problem with either one or both of those files today?
Where can I download both files without having any problems?
Windows 7 pro 64bit.
Thanks,
Brad

Adobe flash player download help

please help me i want to download adobe flash player for my window 8 laptop thanks martin

This is a user-to-user forum, and we're all volunteers, here, so there isn't someone monitoring the posts 24/7.
That said, Windows 8 comes with Flash Player installed (for Internet Explorer). If you're seeing notices that you need to update your Flash Player, and you DON'T have another browser (like Chrome or Firefox) installed, Windows Update should download the latest Flash Player and install it for Internet Explorer.
If that doesn't do it, download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking the following link and selecting "Save target as".
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
When asked, choose to Save the file - DO NOT run it.
Reboot, and BEFORE opening Internet Explorer, go to your downloads folder and run the installer.
If even that doesn't work, follow the instructions to do a "clean install".

I wish to make a complaint re Latest Flash Player Update

The latest Flash Player update installed Chrome on my PC without asking if I wanted it and without my consent. This is illegal in Australia and likely other countries too (eg USA).

Michael,
First, the update I witnessed installed McAfee Security Scan, NOT Google toolbar. But you're absolutely right. Installing it with no "opt out" is far less than what I would call a "good practice". That's the reason I DO update all my software, but I do it "manually". I never suggested "not upgrading" or not updating, but rather recommended what I do myself. I have always had a serious problem with people who tell me to do something they would never consider doing, so I don't make a habit of it myself. Yesterday alone I updated AIR and Flash Player on four systems... manually.
I doubt I'll be able to restore your trust in Adobe. ONLY YOU can do that. As to your complaint, you originally indicated that said behavior was "illegal" and I believe I did a pretty darn good job of explaining why it isn't, because you click the "update" button, regardless of the reason, and your doing so (again, regardless of the reason) implies (if not proves), consent on your part. That's a legal point, even though it doesn't address trust or ethics at all.
When I was at Intuit, we reviewed two separate lawsuits during training on EULA compliance, one was a "Class action" filed by a state Attorney General, alleging that Intuit had installed what amounted to a "rootkit" (Google C-Dilla for more info) on potentially millions of systems without user consent, for the implementation of "anti-piracy" software in TurboTax in 2002. I went to work there in 2003 and I personally issued more than 300 replacement CD-Rs (along with apology letters) that didn't have the C-Dilla on them.
While the court ruled that the software itself caused many problems for the people who were involved in the suit, and that Intuit was liable for damages related to the repair or replacement of affected systems, the ruling magistrate was VERY CLEAR in pointing out that in installing the original software, and "accepting the end user licesne agreement", whether they actually read the whole thing (or any of it at all) beforehand, indicated their consent to install any and all software associated with such agreement. Therefore, the liability was severely limited, and NO puntiive damages could be applied. Several hundred people got free repairs and a few even got new computers, but Intuit made the decision not to use C-Dilla afterward; it was never ordered by the court.
TurboTax is paid software, and Flash Player is free, and C-Dilla was proven to be far more destructive than McAfee, Norton or Google bundled software (it rendered many systems useless), but the principle established by the court was that no one is forced to use TurboTax, and therefore not all of the liability could fall on the developer. Similarly, no one is forced to use Flash Player, or Adobe Reader. That hardly justifies installing third party apps in an update, with no opt out, but it still requires a user initiation to install a "bundled" update, and there ARE options to avoid the bundled software, which are posted in these forums DOZENS of times daily.
As I pointed out, I know of at least one detailed report that was submitted regarding this. It was my intention in reporting it, that someone would make changes that allow users to opt out of unwanted installs when all they're trying to do is update software they see as necessary to get full use and/or enjoyment out of their personal or work computer. Obviously that hasn't happened. I'm not endorsing the practice, or making excuses for it. I already made my position clear on "unwanted" software.
However, I also pointed out that the practice of "bundling software" is industry wide and it ISN'T going to end anytime in the foreseeable future, hence the links I provided and the advice to manually update. Believe me, I fully understand your frustration and I'm on your side. I have to be realistic, though. I have systems with Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 8.1. One of the Win 8 systems is my laptop I use when meeting with clients. I can't afford it to be down because of an anti-virus conflict, and I refuse to use Google Chrome on it because of the massive resource consumption of Google's excuse for a browser. But I've had to make changes in the way I do things to avoid it, because I'm not going to force a company the size of Adobe to change (as my unheeded report has proven).
I'm a freelance web designer, not an employee here. Thanks to the U.S. economy, I have a lot of time to help people out here, so I do. I'm an end user like you, only I have several years of software development and troubleshooting experience. I don't particularly enjoy answering the "why did they install (insert bundled software name here) on my system?" questions. Usually there's no convincing the original poster and subsequent posters that there IS a way around it. Most of them want their computers and ALL software companies to do everything for them, and do it without ever inconveniencing them with knowing it was done, and THEN they complain when something IS installed without their explicit approval. That's a hard case to argue.
Maybe (I'm not holding my breath) enough complaints like yours will eventually persuade Adobe to NOT install bundled apps with updates, and no way to say no to it. Meantime, I do things the long way because I have to, to keep my systems running like I want them

Cannot install latest flash player, previous adobe download had lots of pups

Clamwin found and quarantined lots of infected (more than 60 adobe) files. I deleted them from the clamwin quarantine and then from my recycle folder. Then I got lots of "unresponsive scripts". Then, I tried to download and install the latest adobe flash player (because I thought the deleted infected files might be adobe flash files...they were definitely some kind(s) of adobe files. Now, I am trying to download and reinstall the latest flash player to remedy my lot of "unresponsive scripts", but I cannot complete its installation. I get a message that instructs me to close Mozilla Firefox...which is not open.
What's a Mother to do?
(No idea what community this should be in, btw.)
