Installer says "Not enough disk space"

[ProfCrastinator]

OS: WinXP Home SP 3

Device: Asus Eee PC netbook

RAM: 2 GB

Graphics RAM: 128 MB

C: disk space: 799 MB out of 3.72 GB SSD

D: disk space: 6.13 GB out of 7.50 GB SSD

Browser: Firefox 19

I had Flash Player 11 installed, worked fine but Firefox advised me to update due to a vulnerability. FP 14 installer fails at 0% with the message not enough disk space. When I started I only had about 300 MB available but uninstalled some things, uninstalled FP, restarted, but still get the No space message.

I see Adobe has a link to install an older version (10) but I need v11 or greater.

Thanks for any suggestions.

This is weird... Right after posting I went to VersionTracker to try to find and install a previous version. Firefox popped up a message that I'm missing a required plugin... Flash Player 14 of course. I clicked the option to install the plugin, and for some reason doing it from within FF worked!

You don't need much disk space; the system requirements do not even mention it: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html

Sometimes the error messages from the installer are incorrect; try using these installers

• Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
• Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
