Impossible to update Flash Player that is 11

I have Windows 8.1 and that is 11.0.9600.17498. I went to the Adobe Flash Player help page, and it says I have 16.0.0 and Windows 8. But I have 8.1.

I went to the Page to find my Version and got this:

Flash 2 (2).png

I had the Flash Player update set to warn me when updates available, but I realized that I have received no notice of the Age. I went and changed to be updated automatically. The page in case of problems, it seems that if I have the latest version of Internet Explorer, I get the latest version of Flash Player. I tried to update that is there for Windows 8.1, computer 64-bit, but when trying to install, I got this:

Flash 3 (2).png

I have Mozilla Firefox installed for backup. I checked it. He had the same outdated Flash version, but I was able to update. I prefer to use that is, just because I'm so used to it after all these years. Any suggestions?

Flash Player is built using Internet Explorer on Windows 8 and higher.  Everything comes through Windows Update.

Flash Player in Google Chrome is a built-in component of Chrome.  Everything comes through Chrome.

Flash Player for Firefox and other browsers NPAPI is distributed via Adobe and can be downloaded at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer.  Settings you change in the configuration panel apply to this specific target of Flash Player.

Because Microsoft has its own distribution requirements (tests, etc.) which need to be addressed before they can ship, we can beat them occasionally by a couple days when offering security out of the release cycle.  In general, the difference is quite negligible, and synchronization problems are the only practical limitations and a desire to get the fix to the greatest number as soon as possible when we discover something bad in the wild.  We get a bit of a head start on Microsoft because it is our product, but they do a phenomenal job of getting out in timely releases.

  • Impossible to update flash player

    Using Windows XP, Firefox 39, desktop PC. I also can't update the latest version of flash player (18.00.209) after MANY attempts. Installation stops at about 50% and then he said: "the Installation failed. I tried download from different sites, that you have disabled the protection against viruses, closed windows browser etc... and get the same results each time. The installation is NOT complete; as a result, I am stuck with the 18.00.203 vulnerable vs, which Firefox has disabled unless I allow it. I am very uncomfortable allowing my 18.00.203 flash player with security issues; However, many sites I visit use flash. I see on this forum, people who know the same update problems; Therefore, it must be a problem on the end of Adobe. I'm so frustrated and would be grateful for any help. I feel that I was in a circle of hell with the directions of installation, all that I have followed closely. I usually put the same installation troubleshooting pages over and over again still no resolution. It's my first time here, so, maybe someone has a solution. Please, I beg you!

    Finally, success in updating Flash - a complete accident, but I'll take it! First of all, I checked for malware/viruses...no problems. Then - and this is what seems to have done - I restarted my computer (in general I leave all the time). As soon as he started, I went to FF to 'check updates plug-in' and I saw that Adobe Flash has been miraculously updated! I went to a few flash pages, everything works. At no time during previous attempts to install I was warned to re-boot. Just the installation process stops at 50% and then says 'Impossible' (without reason). I don't know yet why a 'failed' facilities took after a reboot, but this is what must have happened because I did not seek another installation after reboot - was not necessary.

    Anyway, thanks a lot for your suggestions and admonitions to update at least to Windows 7. Need a new computer so I didn't want to waste her time with this one (7 years) just get up and keep this as the storage offline and photo processing. He is a computer to measure, the best I've owned and the more stable with my XP. Yes, I know it's time to say goodbye to the old stuff. The small computer shop that built it won't even install Win 8 unless customers insist - they install 7 because it is easier to use and more stable according to them. So you see, it is difficult to rip away from wrong platforms Windows XP users. Maybe they'll have learned something to win 10 - I even Apple due to the terrible browsers that Windows has imposed on us. I don't mind the change, if it's good change.

    In the meantime, I'm HAPPY to finally have a flash player update, at least. I met their requirements, so it wasn't my XP that was the question, because that is supported with the new flash. I'm really grateful for the wonderful offers of help in this forum. Try to reboot to others as a possible solution.

    Sincerely,

    Donna

    Hello

    You experience this behavior because you use the installer online, download and install Flash Player silently in background, but requires also the user to provide the option to update.  Setup Online is not intended for the distribution of the company.  Distribute Flash Player within your organization, you will need Flash Player (usually free) licenses for distribution.  Apply for a license, go to Adobe Flash Player Distribution. Adobe and complete and submit the form.  After application, you will receive an email with a link to download installers for the distribution of the company.  This includes installers .app both .pkg you can use.  None of these prompts to update the options during installation in silent mode.

    I apologize for not noticing this before, however, I assume that you did not use the installer online since you were distributing Flash Player within your organization.

    Hello

    Thanks for the update.  I am happy that you were able to get installed it.  Always curious to know why the EXE file does not download.  Have you checked your security settings, or maybe anti-anti-virus/firewall settings?

    I'm connected with my Adobe ID. I try to update Flash Player, but I wonder of password and user id. When I try the same here I get that it's the wrong information.

  • I tried to update flash player and when I put my password, it is rejected.  I recently updated my email address and changed my password, but adobe will not accept.  Can I get help, please, update flash player?

    I tried to update flash player and when I put my password, it is rejected.  I changed my e-mail and password and notice to adobe, but I am still unable to install the flash player update.  How can I update adobe flash?

    This password is presented by your operating system and is designed to prevent you from accidentally installing the software.

    If it comes to your personal computer and you don't need a password to connect to the computer when it first starts, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to go to this prompt.  If it comes to your personal computer and your normal password does not work, make sure that CAPS LOCK SHIFT is off, and then type the password carefully.

    If this is your work machine and he asks an administrator password, well, you will need to have a conversation with your computer friendly.

  • Unable to update flash player on android Tablet

    I have two android tablets.  one, recently acquired is a DX 752 iRola.  Trying to play some flash games on pogo.com - tells me that the flash player is outdated.   When I click on update, I get to the Games Shop and adobe applications.   I'm not allowed to update flash player as adobe seems more eager to my games to purchase my software updated.   I never have this problem on a real computer, laptop, or desktop.

    This turns ver 4.2.2 tablet.   I don't know what version of Chrome for chrome says it is obsolete, but don't tell me the version.   I can't update the chrome browser because they want me to buy the games and apps and allow me to update the browser unless I do.

    My other Tablet has the same question.

    all in all it was a salutary experience.

    In addition, I had to reset my password to adobe and then re-sign in after trying to post a question that I made above.

    In my opinion not good customer service.

    If you look at the list at http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/flashruntimes/certified-devices.html , you will see that there are not more Flash Player for Android versions after 4.0.4

    P.S., Adobe sells all games.

  • Pop - Up Ads and request to update Flash Player

    I did a free trial of mechanic systems and ID Vault.  He was supposed to clean up my computer and run faster.  Couldn't tell any difference, so I uninstalled both.  Now, I constantly get pop up ads and continues to receive the request to update Flash Player.  Can I do something to stop this?  It drives me crazy.  I'm not a technical person so keep things simple.  I just want to use my computer without outside interference.  Help, please!

    Hello, Edith,.

    There are a number of things to try. First try this free software: download, install, and run the cleaning for the browser Avast from here: http://download.cnet.com/Avast-Browser-Cleanup/3000-2144_4-75872295.html .

    Who should take care of the pop-up ads. Now for what is already downloaded on your system, try these freeware antimalware scanners:

    Malwarebytes': http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html.

    Super AntiSpyware: http://download.cnet.com/SuperAntiSpyware-Free-Edition/3000-8022_4-10523889.html .

    Then I would run a scan in depth with your antivirus scanner. Don't have one? I use and recommend Avast for free: http://download.cnet.com/Avast-Free-Antivirus/3000-2239_4-10019223.html .

    Let me know if this solve the problem for you.
