Adobe Flashplayer will not install

[Guest]

I am trying very unscussefully to install Adobe Flashplayer.  I operate on Windows 7!  I kept getting eroor messages on "social network" sites that I needed Flashplayer.  Well, I had (operative word) Flashplayer.  After several times of errors "installing it", I de-installed the existing one!  NOW, I cannot get any version to install.  If I have to, I can use "restore" but that is NOT really acceptable.  What is going on and why is this product not installing?  I do NOT want any "add on" things like Google Chrome or any other products.  I simply want this product properly installed and functioning on my computer!  HELP!

Click Start, type msconfig.exe, press Enter, click Selective startup, uncheck Load startup items. Click Services tab, check Hide all Microsoft services, click Disable all, click Ok, click Restart.

How do I do a clean install of Flash Player?

After the install.

Click Start, type msconfig.exe, press Enter, click Normal startup, click ok, click Restart.
