The lastest version of Flash on my pc has a typo in the properties, see as follows: "Adober Flashr Player Update Service 13.0 r0". Notice the "r" at the end of both Adobe and Flash. Is this malware of just a poorly completed application?

Is this malware, OR just a poorly completed application?
It updates to a version that is not the absolute latest on the Adobe website downloads page which is what first got my attention. Yesterday I had to delete the updater executable to get Flash to update to the latest. Yet today here goes the updater again with the properties: "Adober Flashr Player Update Service 13.0 r0".

Can you post a screenshot of what you see: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933

Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.6 r602 stopped working and was closed?

After trying many different fixes including uninstalling flash player and unsuccessfully trying to reinstall it, would consistently stop loading at about 57 percent. Either there are remains of registry keys interfering or your site or my computer has been attacked. No malware showing after checking with antivirus. Seen same message on other computers. Had to restore computer to earlier date but lost some contact info in the process in Skype. Possible problem from trying to install internet tv software, but restored to previous point there to. Computer works ok but slowed on internet considerably but message shows continuously daily need a better solution or let your site analyze my flash player. What can I do?

thank you for your info, I did edit the question to show I was using vista (business to be specific). I will try again with some afterthoughts. Will enable Java first. I remember that was a problem in a previous update, I thought that was always running and go through the steps again. I don't feel comfortable messing with the registry and if you can add some advice on how to deal with that safely that would be appreciated also. Thank you so much for your quick response. Also, isupgrade to explorer 10 recommended for vista or is it suppose to accommodate windows 8. I don't want to be a beta tester before they work out all the kinks sincerelyadobelougLou Grubin

Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are

I get following message:
Adobe® Flash® Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
How can I solve this?

People,
Listen. This service is, has been and seemingly will be: FREE. So while emotions are running on the hot side of the guage, let's remember; it is FREE. Adobe owes no one anything. Now who's to blame, really? We, the people are to blame. Why? Because everyone has been ok with the fact that one company essentially designed and released a technology for streaming from the net. One company. And almost all of us are using this one company's technology to stream; for FREE.
But now we are not ok with it when, after we are prompted to update, we have the issue of it not working? We all never saw the ridiculously high potential for this one company to screw things up, intentionally or otherwise? What the ramifications, that we are now experiencing, might be? Nah, we just took it for granted that we would continue to be served. Well the serve came, everyone. Mistake or otherwise.
It's like this country [US], up until four-years ago. Everyone was either running around with snow shovels and hefty garbage bags to gather all the money they were making or sailing the seas of expectation and an, 'I am out there to get mine' attitude, and then the sh*t hits the fan and now people are complaining? About the very system until four years ago was spoon feeding them poolside with mai-tai's? While it was crushing everyone else in the known world?
No doubt it seems incredulous that a multi-billion dollar company has an IT department that would include in an update, for their own software, that would be inconducive to working. No doubt. But keep in mind: we are all either using browsers by Apple or MS. Anything happens to these browsers, including a virus or anything else that threatens our use of them and...?
So climb off the haughty, 'I deserve' crap and walk on the solid ground of trying to resolve this issue here at Adobe and around the net. If we were to band together, as the 99%, we could solve this, no problem. But then that holds true with resolving this fictitious economic downturn nonsense, that we solidly take for truth at face value, because our mainstream media says so. But no other species on this rock flying through space would know what the f*ck we were talking about.

Adobe flash player update service 11.6r.602 has stopped and was closed

adobe flash player update service 11.6r.602 has stopped and was closed.
i see this pop up at the bottom of the screen (task bar) and it is becoming very annoying.
Why can't this be stopped.
I have unchecked the service in msconfig.
I have the current version of Flash Player.
I use Google Chrome and Mozilla Fire Fox.
I do not use Internet Explorer---way to slow and junked up.
I do use Maxthon Cloud occasionally.

I suggest that you do a clean install of the latest Flash Player, as described in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315

Cannot open grooveshark due to a supposed problem loading flash. (I have the latest version of both (Mozilla and Flash)

Everything with firefox works ok except Grooveshark. An error message appears saying: We had problems loading flash, you might have any blocker etc etc.
I don´t have any blocker and as a matter of fact i have the latest versions for both mozilla and flash. Neither version of flash test nor reinstallation process nor checking add ons or firewall settings solved my problem.
Thanks for the attention. Regards

To double-check your Flash permissions for the site, you can click the globe or padlock icon to the left of the address, click More Information, then click the Permissions tab. The "Activate Plugins" section would be the one to check.
I understand you have checked your add-ons, but in case there is an unexpected interaction, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode just to confirm that extensions are not the problem? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
''Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run''
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

If you are running Tiger, you don't have time machine.
You need to get something like SuperDuper! or Carbon Copy Cloner (sorry, I don't have a handy link for CCC but you can Google it to get their site) to make a clone of your drive on the external and then do incremental backups. The free versions do a lot and you can upgrade to the full-service versions for small change if you need more. The one time I used SuperDuper! for cloning a volume it worked just fine.
(My backup application is the last PPC capable version of Retrospect, which does a credible job, or has over the past ten-twelve years.)

Error: Flash Player "Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem ..."

I get the following message as soon as I boot up my PC:
"Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
According to Adobe, this is the first time they've heard of this issue.

Unchecking auto updates does not stop the message for me.
Sorry to hear that too. I actually recommended this to a few friends who were having the same issue, and it worked for them.
But, I'm wondering.... Have you tried disabling the check for updates settings in both the (Window's Control Panel's) Global settings manager and the (online) Global Notifications Settings panel? (That's the one on this page -- http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l ) On that page, click on the "Globe with the Check Mark" tab and make sure that the box is blank.
Hope this helps.

Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.6 r602 Stopped Working & was closed

The title above is the Windows error flag I keep getting. I am running Windows Vista 32 basic with IE 9. and Flash Player version 11.7.700.224... I have tried an uninstall (which says it worked) and then a reinstall of Flash Player (which also says it worked; and appears to be truely working) but I keep getting the message box about the update service which is annoying at the least. Is there a reference to 11.6 r602 that should have been erased? (I'm assuming this was the 'OLD' flash player number) or is this an actual problem/ conflict? Did some recent Microsoft Update monkey with the Flash Player Update program? What do you suggest?

I also discovered that an additonal copy of 11.6r602 was hiding in C:/Windows/system32. it is also possible that a copy is in C:/Windows/system32/macromed.
Important: Read the NOTE: (below at bottom) first before attempting this.
If you use Windows Explorer and find it there try and delete them/it. If they/it are/is stubborn:
Try 1.) Rt.click on an open area of the task bar; Click Task Manager. 2.) Click the 'Processes' tab. 3.)Try to find the "Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.6 r602" description and highlight it. 4.) Click 'End Process'. 5.) Close the Task Manager.
Then Try to delete again. If it is Still being stubborn:
Try a.)Close Windows Explorer. b.)Rt.click on Windows Explorer icon; Rt. click on "Run as Administrator". c.) go find the offending file and highlight it. d.)Rt. click on the highlighted file and Rt.Click on delete. e.)authorize the delete. and close windows explorer.
Then, Finally: Rt.click on and EMPTY the 'RECYCLE BIN' !!! Restart your computer and go see if you can find any trace of the offending file. It Should NOT be there.
NOTE: Do NOT do any of the above until you read the next paragraph!
The file that you are looking for is 'FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe' The 'exe ' may not be displayed. but you are supposed to find a copy of 'FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe' in C:/Windows/system32/macromed/flash. BUT it is a Later Version.
Hover your cursor over the name and read the version. if it is NOT 'file version 11.6.602.180' LEAVE IT ALONE. If it IS that version Delete it.
This is what worked for me.

Hi, I've been working on this problem on my computer, windows vista, for a while now
and since nothing can correct this problem
I just now discovered that there are two flashplayerupdateservice.exe on my hard drive!
one in my windows\system32 directory and
the other one in windows\system32\MacroMed\Flash
exactly the same version, same everything, 11.6.602.180 both of them
I suspect having two copies of the same program is what makes it crash.
Can Adobe please fix this problem? It's just annoying, does not hurt and you can leave it alone
and go on with your business, but it would be nice to get rid of that error message.
Thanks

Your System Details List shows multiple Flash plugins.
# Shockwave Flash 13.0 r0
# Shockwave Flash 11.6 r602
You can find the installation path of all plugins on the <b>about:plugins</b> page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Identifying_installed_plugins
You can check the Flash player installation folder for multiple Flash player plugins and remove older version(s) of the plugin (NPSWF32) and possibly (re)install the latest Flash player.
