flash player update 11.5 or higher for windows 8

[kaygee84]

Dear adobe team,

I have a windows 8 laptop with adobe flash player version 11.3. One of my online games requires 11.5 or higher. I tried to update my version but the website tells me that available updates will be downloaded automatically when available. But I know that 11.7 is available for windows 8 and tried to update it manually, but that didn't work. I also know that it worked fine under windows vista or XP. so what is the problem? I checked everything you suggested on the website (activate player, deactivate active x filters...) but it is still not working. so why can't I update my flash player?

help please.

On Windows 8 you need to run Windows Update to update Flash Player.
