Problem installing Flash Player. It Opens another app and says error line 162

[hunterh1995]

The computer is a 2012 Macbook Pro. Every time I run the installer it opens MatLab, a Coding software and then gives me an error code (Line 162??). I have flash Version 17.0 already, it is just out of date and I cannot watch my class lecture videos without an updated flash player plug-in apparently. Thanks in advance!

Hi hunterh1995,

Please delete everything (.dmlp) after the .dmg in the file name.

For some reason, when users have MathLab installed it appends the .mdlp extension to the DMG file that was downloaded.  When users attempt to launch it instead of being opened with DiskImageMounter, which is what OS X uses to open DMG files, it opens using MathLab.  If this happens in the future just delete '.mdlp' from the file name and DiskImageMounter will open the DMG, instead of MathLab.
