Help! Adobe Flash Player 12 is installed but IE says otherwise!

Report · Jan 22, 2014

Greetings Adobe Community,

I was wondering if you would help me with this frustrating issue that I am having.

Currently I am using IE 10 on Microsoft Windows 7 and I would like to upload personal photos of mine on Facebook. However, Facebook prompts me that I need a updated Adobe Flash player as seen in the following picture.

I successfully installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.43. However, Facebook still asks me to install the lastest version of Flash.

Here are my Computer Specifications:

My question: Are there ways I can enable Adobe Flash Player 12 on IE 10 so that I may upload my personal photos on Facebook? Thanks.

Facebook is having a lot of problems with IE lately. Most of them are with IE11 though.

I recommend using another browser.

Firefox (from Mozilla)

Opera (from Opera)

Safari (from Apple)

Chrome (from Google)

ANY of those will work where IE won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
