Why Firefox tell me that I still have an old Adobe Flash Player
Adobe and Windows Web site tell me that I have Flash Player installed 18.0.0.232.
Why then the Plugin Firefox status checks status I have Flash Shockwave Flash Player 16.0.r0 16.0.0.235?
How can I get rid of 16.0.r0?
The official method is to use the Adobe uninstaller to remove all Flash on your system, and then reinstall. See: Flash Plugin - keep up-to-date and solve problems.
The hack that usually works is simply to delete the old file of the DLL.
To find the path to the file, you can use the topic: plugins page (type or paste on: bar plugins in address and press ENTER to load).
Use search (Ctrl + f) to search for the npswf , which is the beginning of the name of the file of the Flash DLL. This should go directly to the location of the DLL 16 Flash from where you can remove it. If Adobe uses the same location on Windows 10 as on Windows 7, who would be here:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
Please do not delete other files in this folder without researching what they are for.

That's about all. If you would like more information I'll need some advice from you, such as specific questions. Thank you.
Follow these steps.
- Go to Download Firefox 4.0.1 and download the installer to your desktop.
- Then go to add/remove programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and delete it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations, etc. (don't tick the box).
- Reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
- Finally, run the installation file downloaded previously on the desktop.
Your bookmarks, etc., customizations are stored in a different location and will become available to you even once you complete the installation.
After completing the installation, go to the Plugins check page and update if necessary.

Why do I get pop ups randomly to upgrade my adobe flash player in firefox?
Here is the link that is in the browser: Please update Adobe Flash Player
When it appears he then put a few seconds later with a file download here:http://secure.pn-installer4.com
I checked on netcraft.com and he said: it is owned by Amazon. So I'm a bit confused why they would ask for me to update. Amazon has Adobe?
When I looked I found sites calling a pop up virus and how to remove it. So, I wanted to get the subject by the creators.
Thanks in advance,
Robert
P. S.
Sorry if I put this in the wrong community.
There is no such thing as 'Flash Player Pro'; no Adobe, or anyone else.
These pop-up windows - up appears to be the result of a

It is very difficult to communicate with the creators of Trojans, viruses, or other malware.
The Adobe legal team may be able to have these sites down, but it won't be long until they pop up again under a different name.
The best you can do is to be vigilant and keep your system clean.

On Facebook, the videos are choppy, Adobe Flash player 16.0.0.305 crashes. Issue of intermittent latency when scrolling on web pages. Use memory and CPU high when the shift occurs. I'll upgrade to Adobe Flashplayer 17. I'm especially curious to know if I need Adobe Flash Player NPAPI 16.0.0.305 both Adobe Flash Player ActiveX 13.0.0.214. They perform the same function? Having both installed would be my problem?
You must uninstall both of them and install the latest version of Flash, 17. https://get.Adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=FP_17_for_Firefox_-_NPAPI & standalone = 1

Hello
What site are you using to update Adobe Flash player? No Adobe website never ask any id and password to update the flash player.
If you are using MAC machine and is the password during the installation of the update that you speak, so please follow what userid & password I need to install Flash Player?
