     I have windows 7 64 bit using both fire fox and IE when i right click on a flash video etc and go to local storage setting it is set to none, if i move the slider then click close it does absolutely nothing, when i reopen the setting for the same video it is still at none. i tried reseting the global storage setting using http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.html and the settings manager dosnt function at all. when i try to click allow third party storage nothing happens a check dosnt even apear in the box. if i try to move the slider it just resets back to none. i thought 10kb was the default for all websites... but i cant change the default either.

I don't have Win7 but should not matter which windows you have.  Location and values for this *STUPID* top secret config file I am about to refer to should be the same for any version Windows.

Now what I was about to suggest at first, if you have a slight understanding of hex code and want make permanent adjustment to the default setting then try following my hack, step 1 all the way through to step #6.  WOrking really great for me.  Not totally hating the app and cursing the programmer every time I use it now.
