Unable to download or install flash player for internet explorer

[Perry95]

I recently reinstalled the entire operating system (windows 7) on my pc and since doing so ive been re-installing a lot of software, flash player works perfectly on chrome but is not installed for internet explorer 10, whenever the add-on is detected as missing, and im prompted to download it via https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, the page simply doesn't load (see screenshot), ive attempted downloading it via chrome and then enabling it, but it still doesn't show up, i've simply run out of options

1. Internet Explorer 11 is the latest release. You might want to check for Windows updates to get IE11.

2. Concerning Adobe Flash Player for IE. Click on the following Adobe link. Go down to the bottom where it says "Still having problems?" and click on the link for Internet Explorer.

i actually first had this problem with internet explorer 11, thought it might be the reason for the problem so i uninstalled it in favour of 10, didn't do anything

Hi perry95,

Do you have any ad-blocker software/plugins installed?  If so, please disable them and try again.

i don't have any of those installed yet, so that's not the problem

okay i tried that link, once via chrome (downloaded the .exe file and installed it) it did nothing, i tried accessing it via internet explorer and it too failed to load, but this time i got an error notification

figured it out, the damn security settings were set to high as default for some reason
