Why can't update Flash player give me a good file download to be able to update?
The file that I get when I click on update Flash Player in Firefox addons is: flashplayer_18_gd_install.exe, which will display an unknown Publisher, and when I click on it to install, fails with an error of initialization. See the attached screenshots.
OS: Windows XP (Pro)
Firefox browser
Outdated Flash Player 17.0.0.169 (updated)
New file to download: lashplayer_18_gd_install.exe,.
Addtl Note: I noticed, I can't perform certain tasks such as search, defrag, or 'Manage' due to missing files, but Malwarebytes and AVAST do not detect intrusions at all.

Hi, you could try if installers https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html adobe offline work instead.
Did not work. Error: the file is not a valid Win32 application.
UPDATE: I went back to this file to download some time later, clicked on it, and installed without error. I must have initially tried to install before the download was complete.

Hi GFAngel-9,
Thanks for posting the screenshot. It was very useful.
For non-French speaking people who may come across this message, the error is "Flash Player ActiveX Control fails to register".
The error record is generally returned when there are problems with permissions in the registry or the file system where the Flash Player is installed in. Please read the FAQ How can I fix Windows with Flash Player permission problems? or the tech note Flash Player | Windows registry permissions. The FAQ contains a video about the difficulty of running during the tech note contains more detailed information about the permissions problem.
