Latest Flash Player For Windows 8 x86 - link broken?

Hi all,
Is it my imagination or is the download link broken from W8 x86?
The webpage is here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2880289
But when you click on the the link for W8:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=711cb843-123e-4b69-a47c-7bd017da3 0a0
it redirects to a generic search page.
Anyone got a working link?
Cheers,
Mike

Yup, I fully understand that those links are on Microsofts website but I was alerting to the fact that this is for an Adobe product, and the links are borked.
Perhaps I'm naively thinking that someone from Adobe will read this and contact MS (I've already posted on MS forums).
The unforunate thing is that as its Windows 8, you *can't* install directly from Adobe. It's MS or nothing so the download links from Adobe don't help - but thanks anyway!

Guess all I can do is keep my finger crossed that someone will wake up and fix the links....

    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.

  • 64 bit Flash Player for Windows

    Just in case anyone at Adobe actually reads this forum (which I doubt).
    Why is it taking so long for Adobe to release a 64 bit Flash Player for Windows. 64 bit computing has been readily available to purchase for nearly three years now (Linux even longer). What are they doing at Adobe?. Is it because they think there is not enough money in it for them?
    What a sad state of affairs.

    I have now been waiting over a year for a 64 Bit Windows flash player that will work on IE8.
    I have had a 64 bit computer for two plus years and cannot understand the reluctance by the software market providers to support the ever increasing 64 bit community. Its rediculous it seems that they will not write these programs as there are not so many people using 64 bit and there are not so many people going for 64 bit because there are not so many 64 bit pieces of software out there.
    I believe that it is up to the softawre writers to take the lead. Adobe being one of them. They are supposed to be a leading edge software provider yet they appear not to be able to provide 64 bit software, or at least not in this decade.
    If you google 64 bit flash player it comes back with 14 million hit requests - surely 14 million is enough for Adobe to think about actually realeasing something.
    I use Windows 7 64 Bit OS and it is the best OS I have used to date - rock steady and dam fast. I use IE8 64 bit as a browser and Firefox 32 bit so I can use flash. I have been having problems with the latest release of Firefox (3.5) so tend to use the IE8 more - this is very fast - But no Flash available!!!!!
    It has been a very long time now - come on Adobe there are enough people out there wanting it - give us a date for a 64 bit Windows Flash player - preferably before then end of the year (2009) rather than the end of the decade - thanks guys!

  • How can i install flash player for window 8.1(64 bit) on my laptop

    how can i install flash player for window 8.1(64 bit) on my laptop?

    For Internet Explorer, you don't. Microsoft has already done it.
    For Firefox, Opera or Safari, use the Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    For Chrome, you don't need to wither because Google puts it in the browser.

  • How can install adobe flash player for windows 8 pro internet explorer

    how can install adobe flash player for windows 8 pro internet explorer
    how can instal flash player for internet explorer metro ui 
    where can i watched video tutorial for this or help me please

    I can't tell from the screenshot, but it's possible you are running in the Metro version.  Could you try this page using Internet Explorer in desktop mode to see if that helps?
    right click in the browser and click the tools button
    In the menu that appears, select "view on the desktop"
    Once IE launches in the window, do you see your Flash content?

  • Flash Player for Windows - Silent Install

    I push the Flash Player ActiveX control to all of my workstations, but now I have a user that need Flash Player for Windows so he can open Flash content within certain .PDF files.  I've downloaded the installer (Flash_Player_Install.exe), but I don't know how to make this install silently.
    It's only one user now, but experience tells me that it will snowball quickly.

    The Adobe Flash Player 11.7 Administration Guide focuses on the browser plug-ins.  More troubling is that Page 3 of the administrator's guide states:
    Note:
    There is also a stand-alone player, but it’s usually installed by the development tools, not deployed by administrators.
     This may mean that I can't get what I want out of this.

  • Why doesn't ADOBE provide a flash player for Windows 8 phone?

    I'm in school(CTU online). I can't watch the live chat because ADOBE connect requires flash player. ADOBE needs to fix this problem.

    Adobe discontinued its support for all mobile flash players a long time ago, so there will never be a flash player for Windows Phone 8.

  • What files are in the Program Files (X86) folder for Flash Player for Windows 8.1?

    I keep getting a message from a Hitman Pro indicating the files sqlite3.dll and winclient32.exe in the Flash Player folder are suspicious. What file should be in that folder?

    I have no such folder.
    You probably downloaded a fake, and have malware now.
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Those are the ONLY legitimate updaters that aren't accessed from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    They are the FULL installers we link to here to avoid bundled software (Google Chrome or McAffee Security Scan).
    Bookmark those links.
    Once you get things cleaned up, use them

    You will probably find that Adobe.com is using Flash 8 or 9
    content, hence
    the crash. Since most up-to-date web sites will be similar,
    you may find
    Flash 7 is largely unusable for web surfing.
    Just speculating.
    I don't know for certain.

  • Flash Player for windows mobile 6

    Hi All,
    I have a HTC - Touch. Installing divx player was quite
    straight forward, but installing Flash Player was also quite
    alright but when trying to view youtube videos, it tries to open
    the webpage using a streaming media application but eventually
    stops and comes up saying "failed to find network"
    This is site I have downloaded the flash player from:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_pocketpc/downloads/player.html
    I have vlc player, no joy as well.
    Your suggestions arewelcome please.
    Many thanks
    Khronikles

    Hi,
    I also have bought a HTC Touch and also today I installed the flash player for my touch and I was hoping that now i can run .swf files on my touch. The software was successfully installed but dont know why it was no change in my programs list and nor was I able to run the any .swf on it...!! So I just wanted to ask that were you able to play that after installing the software that you have mentioned in your post because I had googled for the link and I installed the software from the same link as you had mentioned it.
    Please provide suggestions.
    Thanks in advance.
