Why can't I install Flash?

[Lynntogan]

I can't install Flash. I've shut off protection through internet options and also my virus software. When I download it, it says it finished. Can't watch so many videos! I have Windows 7.

Download the Adobe Flash Player uninstaller and installer directly by right clicking the following links and selecting "Save target as".

Save the files to your Downloads folder - DO NOT run anything yet.

Reboot your system.

BEFORE opening anything, go to the Downloads folder and run the UNINSTALLER to remove all instances of Flash Player.

Next, run the ActiveX installer.

Lastly, see:Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer  and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer  to make 100% sure that Flash Player is enabled and NOT being blocked by ActiveX controls.
