Download & install of Flash player does not finish

5-6 times I have downloaded & installed Flash player.

Step 3 of 3 has only 1 option

the only option is to purchase for $9.99 some cloud product, which I do not want.

(There is not option obvious to finish the installation without the purchase.)

Exiting result in the same loop of '..need to install latest version of flash player..' messages.

Hi,

Manage Add-ons view defaults to the currently loaded Add-ons and if there isn't any Flash content in the active tab, then the Add-on isn't loaded.  Be sure to select to show 'All Add ons' to show Flash Player ActiveX (listed as Shockwave Flash).

Please ensure ActiveX Filter is disabled: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer

Hi,

If you're getting to the page with the optional Creative Cloud offering then Flash Player installation has completed, and most likely successful.

Please go to https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html and click the Check Now button  What are the displayed System Information results?

For Flash Player installations where Flash is not installed, or upgrades, the user is not prompted to close the browser. If you're being prompted to close the browser it appears Flash Player is installed and you are re-installing the same version.


For IE, please check that Flash Player is enabled in the browser, and that ActiveX filtering is disabled:

Hi,

Sorry, I'm confused.  In your previous post you stated:

http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html

msg shows "Congratulations, your computer has the latest Flash Player installed."

Manage-add-ons now shows Shockwave Flash Object "Enabled"

Speedtest.net now functions, as well as Facebook games.

Which indicates Flash Player is working.  Now in your latest post you state

Download & install of Flash player does not finish

Is Flash Player working, or not working?

Please reply via the forums directly and not email.  The formatting is very bad when replying via email and it's very difficult to read adn follow your reply.


Thank you.
