Macromedia flash player

I've gone to the download several times, and downloaded, but it never
orovides a functional version of the install. It never gives a UAC dialog,
but it never installs. Anyone else have the same problem? Any solutions?

Hi Gary,

Are you running x64? It won't work in the 64-bit version, you need to run
the 32-bit IE to use that plug-in.

Run the uninstall utility on the website, then download the standalone
version and you are good to go!

Re: Macromedia flash player

Easy fix here:

Navigate to C:\WINDOWS\System32\Macromed\Flash and double click
FlashUtil9b.exe

If that don't work download "install_flash_player_active_x.msi"

Have a nice day
