Unable to download or install flash player for internet explorer

I recently reinstalled the entire operating system (windows 7) on my pc and since doing so ive been re-installing a lot of software, flash player works perfectly on chrome but is not installed for internet explorer 10, whenever the add-on is detected as missing, and im prompted to download it via https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, the page simply doesn't load (see screenshot), ive attempted downloading it via chrome and then enabling it, but it still doesn't show up, i've simply run out of options

1. Internet Explorer 11 is the latest release. You might want to check for Windows updates to get IE11.
2. Concerning Adobe Flash Player for IE. Click on the following Adobe link. Go down to the bottom where it says "Still having problems?" and click on the link for Internet Explorer.

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

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.

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.

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.

Installing flash player(error internet explorer)

When I try to install flash player is gives me an error message that I need to get
out of internet explorer. what does that mean?

It means that you need to close all Internet Explorer windows.
If you still get that message after closing IE, check with the Task Manager (Processes tab) if iexplore.exe is still running in the background.
P.S. you must also close any Messenger applications that are running.

Cannot install Flash Player using Internet explorer

When I click Dowload for Adobe Flash Player I get a new windo
w that shows 4 steps that might occur during
the download. I get none of them, so I don't know what to do. Please help.

I joined this thread because I had the same problem to ernstbandit as per the original post in this thread.
I was also having the problem on the Adobe download page that ernstbandit described in a later post "Depending on your security setting, you may encounter these steps: Steps 1,2,3,4." Once I get to that spot there are no further things to click on. None of the steps appear". Exactly my problem.
I turned off my AV (Latest Norton) as instructed by Adobe message.
I'm confident that the download issue has nothing to do with the Flash program.   The download issue is a problem trying to initiate a download from the Adobe site http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ using IE8.   The download breaks before the download starts. This is only an IE8 issue.   My Firefox and Chrome can download.
The link http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html downloads and installs from IE8. But my Flash still hangs (after reboot).
My 2nd problem (and why I was trying to download) was that Flash was hanging in IE8
To get mine working I had to:
Uninstall Flash Player (both Plugin And Active X)
Re install from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html using IE8
This then worked in IE8 but not in Firefox.
I then installed againg from Firefox using http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
To get it working in multiple browsers looks like you need to do IE8 first.   And this may have been my original problem.   As I normally use Firefox I probably initially loaded the upgrade from Firefox.
Why are you asked about your OS and browser when you download Flash?
Why are there 2 choices for Browser IE8 and Other?
And does this mean that Flash may not work if you run multiple browsers?
To the others I would suggest if IE8 is giving you grief try Firefox, I had used IE4, IE5, IE6 and IE7 but have found perfomance of IE8 on my aging and overloaded laptop dire.
I only keep IE8 as my default browser because Automatic Windows Updates don't work if IE is not your default browser.

Flash Player for Internet Explorer 5.0

My company has IE 5.0 and does not allow for other downloads
of software. How can I get my Flash 8 movie to run on ie
5.0?

as long as you have the flash 8 plugin (control in you case)
which you can easyliy install under ie5 (provided you have the
rights to do so on your system) there should be no problem.
Only if the Flash 8 movie uses special features of
Flash-Javascript communications there could be a problem.

Unable to install Flash Player for Firefox -- trojan detection

Hi. I'm unable to download/install the newest Flash Player update for Firefox. Our SonicWALL firewall is blocking the download with the following message: "Gateway Anti-Virus Alert: This request is blocked by the SonicWALL Anti-Spyware Service. Name: Babylon.ADW (Trojan)"

Please use below link for downloading of Adobe flash player

A facebook game (ZumaBlitz) That I have been playing for years is causing me to be prompted to download and install flash player, when I do it still doesn't work.

Why has Zuma Blitz and other games stopped working? I have downloaded and installed flash player but it still doesn't work.

IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO INSTALL FLASH PLAYER FOR A MONTH!!!!

Hi
I don't mean this post to sound like a complaint and I don't want to write an essay either.
It genuinly is a request for some help.
First of all:
I used to have Flashplayer (which Flashplayer I don't know) but it worked fine. All of a sudden everywhere I went started asking me to install the latest version of Flash Player. This includes the BBC, Youtube and just about any website which was offering video - most of them (like Adobe) pretty much household names in the twenty first century. Quite clearly Adobe is BIG! Even the BBC can't operate without Adobe!
It has got to the point where I expect bus inspectors to jump out on the 192 to manchester and tell me that I can't board the bus without the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. In fact, as finding out how to install it is becoming a full time job I'm dreaming about Adobe at night and thinking about it every waking hour. I imagine that when this new version of Flash Player is finally installed it will blow my mind??
Okay so I am joking (a little). But honestly, this issue has wasted hours and hours of my time and been made worse by an Adobe website which is like a conundrum of merrygorounds. Nothing is clear and nothing seems to link to where it says it will - if it does it goes about the houses back to the beginning. I just spend half an hour (starting at the start page linked to by the BBC) from changing United States to United Kingdom / selecting Support then going through about four or five more pages looking for this support only to discover I had been led back to the beginning to change United States to United Kingdom again. I know I'm right on this matter because in the ADOBE adventure of the last month I've actually found the troubleshooting pages for Flash Player on a number of occasions (equally as madly but by different routes).
I am not a computer programer, I am a website software user. I'm currently building a site with over 1000 pages of different interlinked themes for a not for profit organisation- This still has many many mistakes but despite not getting paid a penny for it - its easier to use and understand than Adobe's - thus my USERNAME.
YOU NEED TO FIX YOUR LINKING SYSTEMS! Because getting help from a leading international software manufacturer for a product which is advertised as FREE but is ESSENTIAL for viewing active content on just about every legitimate site on the World Wide Web must be frustrating thousands if not hundreds of thousands of Adobe users. In the end it won't be good for business!
I have been trying to install FlashPlayer 10
I have uninstalled previous AdobeFP installations, Java set to allow. Permissions in registry okay.
I identified my problem through your troubleshooting page as 'FP installs okay (according to some half visible writing in a little box to the right of the screen) but still won't play. Incidentally, despite this half visible writing claiming I have successfully installed FP - the flash movie doesn't play and there is no text below it - as the dialogue suggests would appear.
Nothing WAS wrong with my registry unless the abortive attempts to install FP has corrupted them.
I have read document kb400116 (and others) and followed them to the letter.
I am using IE7 on WXP Home and McAffee Home security (nothing to do with them either).
I strongly believe (by reading through some posts on here) that the problem DOES lie with ADOBE!
Does anyone have any suggestions or should I stop paying my BBC licence?
Thanks

Try this it worked for me Pat Willener gave it to me off the site :
I have not read all you wrote, so I may have missed some points. As I understand it, you installed FP 10 on IE7, but it won't play any Flash content?
Try this
download the FP uninstaller from http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157
close all browser windows, then run the uninstaller
download the offline ActivX installer for Internet Explorer from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
close all browser windows, then run the installer
