Npswf32.dll error during flash player installation
I tried to install flash player, but I get the same error when I try:
Error opening file for writing C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\NPSWF32.dll
When I ignore that one I have another error
Error opening file for writing C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe
and then when I ignore what he "finishes downloading", but it is basically useless and does not work. I went to the location above to see if I could find the file NPSWF32.dll- but he's not here. There is a c:\windows\system32\macromed and the Flash file, but it is empty inside. I downloaded the NPSWF32.dll and tried to put it in the flash folder, but the system wouldn't let me. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but I keep getting the same error. It drives me crazy, please help me if you're familiar with this problem. I Googled it and I saw that many people had this problem too, but I have not yet found a working solution. I'm on windows vista and im using firefox 3.6.
Hi, the files that you speak of are deleted with the Adobe uninstaller and then the Setup program will install the necessary
files in the Flash folder.
http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/141/tn_14157.html Download this program to uninstall and put it on your desktop
http://fpdownload.Macromedia.com/Get/flashplayer/Current/install_flash_player.exe This is the installer of FF, save it to your desktop
Because I do not know what Add ons, extensions or plugins you just disable everything for now.
Follow the instructions to uninstall, close all browsers, check the system tray. Some programs that use Flash should
running.
Disconnect from the Internet
Disable all anti-virus/Spyware running in real-time programs.
Turn off the firewall you use, with the exception of Windows Firewall
Run uninstaller to your desktop, and then restart your computer. Wait until this that completely rebooted, then restart again
Run the installer to your desktop, and then restart your computer
Activate your firewall and your anti-virus/Spyware programs
Connect to Internet
Go to this site of Adobe test to confirm that you have vs installed 10.0.42.34 http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about FP
Go to your plugins and make sure you have SWF (Shockwave Flash) vs 10.0.42.34 there and it is activated
Enable Java - the last is JRE 6 update 18.
Then check your Flash file and post back with the files that are now installed.
Now if you have older versions of Java installed (check the Add/Remove), you will need to remove them via Add/Remove
and install the latest Java. NOTE: You can do before the uninstall/install process. POST back and I'll give you the Java installation procedure.
Thank you

OSX: Flash Player installer appears easily 10 x per day
Dear Adobe team,
On my Macbook Pro with OSX 10.11.6 the app to install flash player launches easily 10 times a day, without asking me for it.
What is happening is that I do my job and at random, get a pop-up saying that Flash player is up-to-date on my system.
10 times. a. day.
Unfocuses some app I work too much so I often in bulk text because of its input.
I don't know what make the top to open it, I have the following programs open all day: Firefox 48.0.1, Apple Mail, Mailplane 3, Slack, Apple Notes.
I can't spend a day with these applications closed for troubleshooting, it's my work machine.
Do you have any suggestions what to do? How do I update the Flash Player installer or why is this application even on my system?
Thank you very much for your help!
Thanks for the info.
The reason that the pop - up that happens is that the plugin PPAPI (used by Opera and browser based on Chromium, except Chrome) is an older version of Flash Player. Update checker runs and tries to check for an update, but the check fails because of an error "unable to connect to the server. Because he cannot connect to the server, it then returns the message you see. We have not seen the error returned in your log file and need to continue the investigation.
Use a proxy server?
Your system has restrictions on what processes can access the internet?
If you use the PPAPI plugin, launch the Chrome browser that uses it and go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the latest version of the PPAPI plugin.
If you have / use a browser based on Chromium, I recommend you to uninstall. Unfortunately, the Mac uninstaller program currently does not support remove them that type a (for example, PPAPI only or NPAPI only) Player. It allows you to uninstall all Flash Player plugins present on the system and you will then need to re - install the NPAPI (used by Firefox) plugin. To uninstall using the standalone uninstall program or the Adobe Flash Player installed by located in/Applications/Utilities. After that the player is uninstalled, start Firefox and go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the NPAPI plugin.

Adobe Flash Player Installer box appears white?
My laptop is running Windows 7 and I am trying to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player for Firefox 14.0.0.125. Everything is fine until I get to the Adobe Flash Player installer box, it just looks like a black box empty. I have retried several times now and always empty the box of installation poster. I even waited to see if maybe it was just slow download but I got the install window open for at least an hour now and she is still a Virgin. Is this a problem with my laptop and if if I can help with it or is it a problem with the Adobe website?

Flash Player installation does not complete
Help! I'm at the end of my mind! Windows 9, 32-bit. I have uninstalled older versions of Flash Player and seem to be downloading, but after waiting several hours, am always on "step 2" download. "" Manager tasks indicates install_flashplayer is a process, but never finished. Have followed the instructions on the Adobe website, security in the Middle, the ActiveX filtering out etc. Any ideas gratefully received.
Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by clicking the link next and selecting "save target as."
Flash Player ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Save the file to your download folder or office, where you can find it - DO NOT run again.
Restart your system - a hard reboot - arrested, waith 30 seconds and then restart.
Before opening anything else, find the downloaded installer and run.

Long ago, adobe has decided not to distribute flash via the believing, but there a workaround for us who do not want to have a Manager to download a 10 MB file. Normally to get flash I go to using flash and download the version of the plugin, but now I go to the same page and the link is not there. using the manager isn't an option, is there another workaround solution or am I forced to download a virtual computer and and taking the plugin like this.
It is very annoying and a platform that 97% of all PCs have installed, it simply does not exist.
Hi ctoon,.
Here is a link to a page that contains the Flash Player installation programs: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html

Flash Player installation script errors
Hello
I have Win XP 32-bit SP3 with IE8. Adobe has sent me an update to Flash Player a week ago
and I installed and became errors Adobe in the background every minute 30 or so say she had to complete the process. XP then asked me if I wanted to send a report to Ms. So I did several times. I got tired of it and XP I removed the Flash Player. I went to reinstall it from the Adobe Web site and I keep getting script errors. By reading the forums and suggestions from a multitude of people, that's what I did without success:
Update XP to the latest patches
Update Java to the latest version
It was suggested to run a repair of the registry, then I ran Norton 360 Registry FIx pgm and it comes
found a file that's not fair. But it does not look as if it had something to do with this problem
So, as long as fold forum suggested I can...
Blocked the Norton 360 Antivirus Auto-Protect utility and downloaded the uninstall program, closed IE8 and run uninstaller from Adobe. No problem.
Then I rebooted and with Norton 360 Anti virus Auto Protect blocked again tried to reinstall more later (11.3.300.265) but I always get script errors trying to install directly form the Adobe Web site. He quit the installation and I have to restart if you try to reinstall as it says that a xxxxx can run at a time.
Suggestions more?
Thank you.
