Adobe Flash Player, Secunia PSI and Me.
Of all the software that I use, probably none irritates me quite as much as Adobe Flash Player. (I've dumped at least since Adobe Reader, Java and all things Google). What a pain it is to keep this evil need patched on all my systems and browsers!
-All the weeks Flash seems to release a new version addressing "vulnerabilities", the latest version being seemingly 11.4.402.278 after being released 10 days ago.
-C' is my practice to avoid downloading the new software until the info on new changelog or release notes
are published. I want to know exactly why it is important to upgrade until I get a 'pig in a poke. "
-Adobe (and Secunia) still have to publish this info for the latest version of Flash. Thus, all my systems continue to use the old version 11.4.402.265. And Secunia PSI continues to tell me that this version is fully patched and 'up-to-date' on all my systems (XP and Win7). PSI has historically had a day or two to get the current with security updates, but after 10 days, I tend to trust him.
-Finally, it is my understanding that the latest versions of Flash (Control Panel > Flash console > Advanced tab) allowed to auto-update to the newer versions of the Flash, or at least to indicate a when newer versions were available to install (option I chose). I still get this function runs on any of my systems.
I missing something here, or is the top a valid rant?
This will bring you back up then
Personal Adobe
This version is simply the result of changes made to our build process. There was no code carried out changes and no need to update your client systems.

Nice to Adobe to officially announce this information and not bury deep in their forums .

Install Adobe Flash Player on Windows and Internet Explorer?
Is - this now of paramount importance that Adobe Flash Player, will also be installed on Windows and Internet Explorer? After decades of semi - master the computer, I find this embarrassing question for me. Lately, Adobe Flash Player (Shockwave) has become a pariah for many due to its hostile structure and arrogance from Adobe to help! Up-to-date facilities have been substantially no problem. Now, speaking on behalf of all the tortured, are we not all exhausted trying to fix things? Yes! Well, if is my madness of query, or is there a grain of truth? Earlier that apply forward. Thank you!

Adobe Flash Player, Google Chrome and Deskjet F4440
Whenever I try to open my HP Deskjet F4440, a dialog box appears indicating that I can't open the program unless I have download Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer. First of all, I don't use Internet Explorer and, second, when the last, I was invited to do the same action for another program on my computer, I followed the prompt. However, when I do it by following the instructions, I started having problems with my default browser, Google Chrome (OS: Windows 7). Chrome crashed repeatedly, and after many tests to troubleshoot it, I decided that the course of action was to uninstall and reinstall Chrome. He worked without crashing for a week. Now, I get again the same message for download Flash Player even if I had already done before. I can't use my all-in-one printer for a digitization project and I am extremely frustrated. The upgrade of the unit did nothing to solve this problem. Help, please!
Hi @rnkh,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that whenever you try to open your HP Deskjet F4440, a dialog box appears indicating that I can not open the program, unless I have download Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer and you cannot scan. I'm happy to help you!
It is possible that there could be a software conflict with Adobe. In order to know for sure I would suggest the following:
- Uninstall the printer software. Uninstalling the printer software.
- Clean boot the computer. How to perform a boot in Windows.
- Re-install using the printer HP install wizard for Windows.
If this does not resolve the problem, then I would recommend contact the Support from Adobe.
I hope this information helps!

The TWO Adobe Flash Player 16 NPAPI and Adobe Flash Player ActiveX 17 can I?
I noticed that I have two versions of Flash installed (16 and 17), even if said NPAPI and ActiveX says. I do both, or can I safely remove Adobe Flash Player NPAPI 16?
Each major browser has a different plugin architecture, which means that there is a single version of Flash Player for it:
ActiveX is for Internet Explorer. NPAPI is for Firefox and other browsers based on NPAPI. PPAPI is for Google Chrome and other browsers based on chrome.

- msiexec /i \\servername\Adobe\Flash\install_flash_player_16_active_x_IE.msi /qn
All have failed. I just realized that IE 8.1 Windows comes with an older version of flash. How to update?
Here's the log of FlashInstall, but I'm not able to understand the question. Any help would be appreciated.

You need to update with Windows Update. You can also go to: Flash Player issues. Windows 8
and grabbing the bottom KB, however I had much more luck using Windows update, I have with the single knockout.

Vudu requires Adobe Flash Player for movies and gives me an error message saying that I need to upgrade to the latest version and it gives a link. When I followed the link and install the latest version, I still get the same message. I checked the Add-ons Firefox and Adobe Flash Player does not appear as an add-on available or plug-in. What is the problem?
Hello
Make sure that you have downloaded the Flash Player right as Firefox uses a different plugin than Internet Explorer (which uses ActiveX).
- (all installers) https://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
- (automatically select the correct Installer for you) https://get.Adobe.com/flashplayer/
- Notice that the link is usually an 'optional' offer for the McAfee toolbar in the middle pane you can untick this box as it is not necessary to use a Flash.
