How do I get Active X control for flash player registered?

[marthasheekas]

I have been having problems with flashplayer.  I continue to get different messages when I try to download.  The latest message is:  Active X control for flash player could not be registered.  What do I do to get the system working?

Looks to be a permission issue.  Do you have administrator priveleges on the machine?

You may also want to try this method to fix permissions with flash player.

I don't know what happened, but I turned my computer off for the evening after trying all of the instructions.  The next morning flash player  was working.  Thanks for responding.

Glad to hear it working again.
