pwillener Apr 1, 2012 5:41 PM (in response to Imagine090)You do not need, in fact you shouldn't have, both Flash Player 10 and 11 on the same system. Follow Carl's instructions and you should be fine.
P.S. you should also update your Adobe Reader to the latest, at least 9.5 version. Download it from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5333

Imagine090 Apr 2, 2012 7:27 AM (in response to Carl E. Myers Jr.)Thank-you both for the replies, very helpful.
Carl, I use my desktop PC for work all week, it is on from Sunday night to Friday night.
When I view this thread on my desktop PC there are no reply buttons (I am using the laptop to reply)
but your links do show up and they are clickable. I downloaded the uninstaller from your first link to my desktop.
Your second link, the download for the 64 bit flashplayer did start to downlooad I stopped it. I just wanted to check that the download would start.
Sorry for my lack of understanding but on your number 4) do you mean I should type C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash into "start, programmes, accessories, windows explorer"?
I am going to follow your instructions on Friday night because I cannot to afford to be without the PC during the week. I hope you understand why I am delaying it because if I use the uninstaller link you kindly provided and I am unable to delete the remaining files my PC might be even more unusable than it is now.
In the meantime, do you think that if I follow your instruction I will be able to view my email pages again?
Is it likely that beacuse my desktop does not have Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX 64 bit that there are no reply buttons on this website?

Go ahead and download the stand alone installer, it is not an online installer, you have to run that installer after it has be downloaded.

Windows Explorer has an address box to the left of the search box, make your entries there. Or you put the entries into the search box of the Start menu.

No idea, why does your email pages need Flash Player to work?

Flash Player is needed to fully utilize this forum.
