I just installed the latest update to flash player plugin to my new Windows 8 machine, and it crashed my OS big time.

After numerous restarts I was finally able to copy the file I was working on to a separate drive, but I just about lost a whole bunch of work, thanks to your garbage software.

Now I will have to reinstall the OS, because brilliant Microsoft has taken the ability to boot to a command prompt completely out of my hands, and I have no way to repair it. I am going to go back to windows 7 as soon as I possibly can. Windows 8 is not ready for prime time at all; not to mention your terrible software that I trusted when I installed it.

Based on your rant (I can only assume that's what it is because you didn't say you need help with anything) your computer has a whole pile of problems, Flash Player being the least of them, the fact that it's nowhere near suitable to run Windows 8 being the biggest.

You don't install Flash Player updates on Windows 8; Windows Update does that.
