Reinstalling flash player on Internet Explorer 10 (in Windows 8)?

I'm not sure what caused it, but for the last several months, the flash player just hasn't been working. After looking around and following all the steps (add-on already enabled, active X filtering already not on, already have lastest versions of Flash Player and Explorer 10 and video driver and windows updates), I decided to just uninstall Flash Player and then reinstall it, but now I'm at a dead end since the download/install pages keep telling me it's already pre-installed in Windows 8 apparenlty oblivious to the possibility of it having been post-uninstalled.

You cannot uninstall the ActiveX plug-in for IE in Windows 8 without manually removing a specific Windows Update KB Patch, and two individual registry keys. THAT'S why it still says it's installed... because it is. If you removed anything, it was the Standard Flash Player Plug-in that Firefox, Opera or Safri would use if you have any of them installed.
You probably need to repair IE: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378

Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 11 (Windows 8.1)

Hello
I am having a problem with Flash in IE 11 / Win 8.1. I understand it is embedded. But I keep getting the window at the bottom of the screen saying this webpage wants to run the following add-on 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Microsoft Windows Third Party Application Component....' I click allow and the message keeps coming back. On top of this, Flash will not work.
I have a feeling there is something corrupted. I have tried to download an update (kb3004150) and it says I already have this on my system. I also have tried to install it manually using the install_flash_player_ax.exe file, but to no avail.
What do I need to do to fix this and why aren't there other options on Adobe's site?
Thank you!!!

Adjusting the ActiveX Filtering settings should help you resolve those "Do you want to allow Flash Player" prompts:
Use ActiveX filtering - Windows Help
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.

Flash Player for Internet Explorer has to be reinstalled

Every time I'm booting my computer, Flash Player for Internet Explorer has to be installed. I'm using Win7, 64 bits. Without reinstalling, Real Player will not play offline. However, when accessing YouTube with IE, it plays the video without reinstalling. Computers are fun!

You need to close all iexplore.exe processes; use the Task Manager's Processes tab.

Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning

Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning. However, flash player is installed and enabled, but HP Solution center keeps asking for enabling and doesn't let me scan.
Any suggestion?

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @yuvalyanai
I read about the issue you are having with scanning, as you are seeing a message to enable Adobe Flash player.
To begin, I would like to know some more information:
Which operating system you are running and which printer you are working with?
How Do I Find My Model Number?
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Can you make copies successfully?
Can you print from your computer?
Have you tried updated Adobe Flash player?
Can you scan successfully from Microsoft Paint?
How is your printer connected to your PC, wireless, ethernet or USB?
In the meantime, try resetting the printer:
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
I hope to hear from you, have a wonderful weekend

Fix for Flash Player in Internet Explorer Issue

I've seen quite a few people with this issue and they all
seem to have issues finding the fix...I never found a 100% solution
on Adobe's site, but I found some directions that finally worked.
Basically, if Flash Player refuses to work in Internet
Explorer for you (but works in other browsers if you've tried) then
follow the steps available at
Fix
Flash Player in Internet Explorer .
It's basically a mashup of various directions available on
Adobe & Microsoft's websites with links to all the files that
you will need to download. Hopefully Adobe can use the list to
create a fix that works.

Hopefully this FAQ will help:

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums,
Download these Flash Player installers :

Hope it helps !!

Flash Player and Internet Explorer

I continual get a message that I cannot view something because I need the latest flash player. I download and upgrade the flash player and it happens again the next day. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong. It has something to do with IE. I can view the items under Chrome.

Chrome has its own Flash Player plugin and it functions independently of IE or any IE plugins.

Recent Windows Update make Flash player freeze Internet Explorer

Hello guys,
I've run an Windows Update of a Windows 2008R2 Terminal server last night and these updates cause Internet Explorer freeze on every website which contains flash animation.
If I disable FLash module, the problem disappers (but no more flash animation ).
As Flash 11.4 was previously installed, I've try to replace it with a newer version of flash 11.5, but this don't solved my issue.
Do you know how can I solve my issue ?
Can I provide you some debug log to help you ? (And how can I get these debug log ?)
Please found a list of all the update which have been done last night. Hope this will help you.
Software used :
- Windows 2008R2 Terminal Server
- Internet Explorer 9
- Flash player 11.4 (try 11.5 but trouble still there)
Best regards,
Gregory

Flash Player com Internet Explorer 11.0.9600.16428 Windows 7

Após atualização automatica do Internet Explorer 11 o flash player deixou de funcionar nalguns sites, inclusive um informa-me para instalar o flash player. Os mesmos sites no google chrome funcionam corretamente.

Chrome has it's own Flash Player plugin ("PepperFlash") which functions independently of the AcitveX plugin in IE. Things you set in IE have no impact on it.
See: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/885448 and: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968 to be sure Flash Player is enabled and not being blocked by ActiveX filtering in IE11.

Flash player 14, Internet Explorer 11 and Windows 7 (x64)

It seems impossible to allow flash to run.
Uninstall of version 14 and reinstalling Flash 13 solves the problem (but this isn't desirable).
Need working Flash !
Any suggestions?

Sorry but there seems to be blocks for Flash 13 too.
Probably there is something in the latest update from Microsoft that causes this.

Can't install the Flash Player for Internet Explorer

Hi.
Today, I started noticing my videos were stuttering a lot (something that doesn't usually happen on my computer) and I thought my Flash Player was glitching out, so I uninstalled it and deleted the registry keys for it via Iobit Uninstaller. I restarted and then re-downloaded the player.
The Firefox/Chrome/Opera etc. version installed smoothly and now works perfectly fine. In the case of the Internet Explorer installer, however, it says that a newer version of the player is already installed.
I'm using Windows 8 (64-bit) and IE10; from what I've been reading, IE10 comes with a pre-installed Flash Player. The problem is I don't seem to have it anymore. It doesn't show up in my IE Add-on list (http://i.imgur.com/mkm4JQf.png) and whenever I try to watch a video or something that requires Adobe Flash Player, it says I need the player.
Things I have tried so far:
downloaded the Adobe Uninstaller to uninstall the Player and then reinstall it;
checked if ActiveX Filtering was enabled (it was not);
reset IE settings to default;
installed Adobe Flash Player beta (it wouldn't let me; it said my Windows came with the latest version of the player);
ran the 32-bit version of the browser;
checked for possible Windows updates (it's up-to-date);
tried to downgrade the browser, without success (the IE10 update doesn't show up in my Control Panel's updates uninstallation screen);
tried to run System Restore (it failed; it said my antivirus had to be disabled, and I did, but it still wouldn't restore).
Normally, I wouldn't really mind it, since I don't even use the browser directly; software I'm using, however, requires IE (and its Flash Player) to run.
Thanks in advance.

I suddenly cannot startup Captivate 4 for reason Flash Player for Internet Explorer not installed or older version, but I have verified that Flash Player 16,0,0,235 is installed. Please help.

Hi,
I haven't used my Adobe Captivate 4 for a bit, but when I try to start it up, I get the following message:
"The Flash Player for Microsoft Internet Explorer, is not installed or its an older version.
You will automatically be redirected to the Adobe website to download the latest Flash Player.
Please note that the Adobe Captivate cannot be used until the Flash Player is installed."
Even if I click the OK button and reinstall the Flash Player, I still get the same message, when I try to startup Captivate.
I have verified that I'm running Flash player 16,0,0,235, which is supposed to be the latest version.
I'm running Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11.
Please help.

The problem is that your version of Captivate 4 needs to be updated with a patch that Adobe used to supply. (I don't have a link anymore to it.)
Captivate 4 was unable to recognise Flash Player versions beyond a certain number. It gives you a misleading error message that makes it look like you have the wrong version of Flash Player. But the real problem is that Captivate needs to be patched to recognise the latest FP versions.
I'm hoping that someone from the Adobe Captivate team will chime in here and give us another link to download the patch. Otherwise, you really might be forced to upgrade to a newer version of Cp. However, if your current projects are being built in Cp4, your next issue will be that if you purchase Cp8 it will NOT be able to upgrade your Cp4 projects. You'd need to download a trial version of Cp5 or 5.5, and do a two-step upgrade.
