How do I get rid of cfiles.5min.com

I have no idea what you are asking, or how this is connected with Adobe Flash Player.

Every time flash play opens I get a pop up that cfiles.5min.com whats to use my computer to store files, I'm asking how do I get rid of it, and I'm not the only person asking this question.

Flash Player does not go by its own to any websites; it is either you doing it, or malware on your computer.

Anyway, from the Flash Player Settings Manager you can permanently deny that site storing data on your computer.

I have the same annoying problem. The popup is titled Adobe Flash Player Settings

And - did you follow the advice I gave to the o/p?

I found a site called macromedia.com that took me to the settings manager. You gave no directions. At the site I clicked on ask me each time. When I returned to AOL there was no change and the popup continued to appear with the videos. Earlier I had called AOL and the tech person took over  and after a long time he assured me that the problem was solved by being sure that adequate storage space was available on my hard drive. That seemed odd since there has always been at least 600 GB available over the last few years. The popup appeared very recently.

That is exactly what you get: a pop-up each time asking if it can store data on your computer.  If you don't want this, check 'Never ask again'.

You can also set it per site in the Global Flash Player Settings Manager.
