Hello, In researching another DCOM error I can across this one: Windows 10 Forums I tested this and confirmed that by disabling the plugin in Firefox solved the issue and DCOM errors are not thrown upon exit when FF closes and Plugin is disabled. Best Regards

I understand but if you look in my guide I have something that will simplify the process under MYURL link. Sorry I had to kind of bury it. I have learned on here that outright to post a link to a utility I created does not do any good, so I have to be tasteful and explain the clean install process and give users the options to do it manually and then they can always look in my profile for the goodies. Best Regards Please be sure to mark my post here helpful or answered if I assisted you Thanks

verysleepyguy​ or you can get the offline installers instead of going through all that mess. For some reason Adobe fails to provide a manual install link on the pages and you have to dig for it ( prob a political decision in the company in an attempt to use the online installers and get Mcafee/nortons installed ) Anyways you can find the offline link in my Guide to Manually update flash here: Guide to Manually updating Flash Player for Windows Best Regards Please be sure to mark my post here helpful or answered if I assisted you Thanks

Hello, I wanted to provide some additional information to you for troubleshooting this issue. Guide to Manually updating Flash Player for Windows That is a guide I wrote that could possibly assist you with issues. Also, you might want to try the adobe uninstaller, then use the standalone to reinstall, but make sure any Firefox process and flash ones are closed via task manager. You also might want to attempt the sfc /scannow command and to run windows updates as well Best Regards Please be sure to mark my post here helpful or answered if I assisted you Thanks

I have noticed several questions in this forum regarding the Flash icon in the control panel and how it appears to be missing on Windows 10. I have done some investigating and have figured out the reasoning behind this and how to restore it. First off in Windows 10 it appears that this icon or setting in the control panel is part of the windows system itself; meaning that when windows updated flash player Active X via windows updates that should re-enable that icon/feature for you. Usually in the Windows system folders there are two files present that control the Flash Control Panel: 1) FlashPlayerApp.exe 2) FlashPlayerCPLApp.cpl For 64 bit systems the file sit in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 For 32 bit systems the files sit in C:\Windows\System32 Technically you can back these files up ( zip, rar, 7z archive them ) and replace them if need be as deleting and re-adding the files technically works. HOWEVER, this will not address any security updates to that Control panel app if the control panel app is older than the flash version associated with it, and it is unknown as of this writing if old control panel apps with work with new flash ActiveX versions. Those will be in the file properties details tab and should correspond with the ActiveX version installed. If you already have the latest version of Flash Player in Windows 10 via Windows updates, then there are some relatively painless steps to restore it. From the start menu: 1) goto settings. 2) update and security. 3) update history. 4) Uninstall updates. Look in your list for something under Windows updates ( make sure you look at the whole list ) called ' Security update for Adobe Flash ' like in the below screenshot. 5) Uninstall it. should take a minute or two. and you will then have it back in control panel. This is just restoring the versions Of Flash ActiveX that came with the original install of Windows 10. 6) Once complete go back to the start menu and follow steps 1 and 2 above, and then choose Check for updates ( I am on Windows 10 pro. I assume in Windows 10 home there is a check for updates button ). This should update your Adobe Flash player to the latest. I have tested everything above mentioned on my system and a few more things which I have not mentioned with regards to this and I am able to duplicate this ever time and can successfully get my Adobe Flash Control panel icons back.

So, it could use activeX flash possibly. Not familiar with this app. However, ActiveX Flash files are handled by windows updates.. Also, you can check the version directly as well. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\ for 32 bit C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash for 64 bit versions if you have a x64 machine simply right click on the Flash.ocx file it should be about 27MB then choose detail and it should be the latest. Mine shows 23.0.0.207 If it is not you might want to try and update windows because that is how this is handled. We are at Microsoft's mercy for the activeX version on windows 8 and up. Try Windows update and see if anything is waiting. lets try that first

Its up, but that log states that it completed successfully. The program reads the file versions in the windows system macromed folders as to the versions. ActiveX is not messed with in windows 8.0 and above. If it did not complete it would not post that as that is the last step before it is finished. There could have been another instance running in the background ( automatic updates ) that caused that error you were seeing, the program kills any app that starts off with flashp*.exe if the update package is something else then it will not be killed. I have never encountered anything like that in all my dealings with this. I do not know what the package name is that is downloaded in the background via automatic updates, so that could have been this issue you might have been seeing. IMO. Anyways Hopefully that was just an anomaly and you just got lucky in your timing.

@Ridagold Sorry for the delayed response, I have not set up the app for Cyberfox exe's Palemoon yes. Please look in the event viewer under applications and look for the 411 code.That will tell you if it completed. and what it did. I took care of the regedits, there are a very few, and the Adobe uninstaller that it downloads should handle the uninstall. The app kills quite a bit of application, however I cannot guess them all atm. I am not fluent with the adobe logs honestly. I am about to upload a new version with a debug log that is created in documents. That should be up by tonight. Sorry for the slow reply.

They made some changes lately to the installer. Instead of 'Mcafee.TrueKey.InstallerService.exe' being the immediate installed process it is now called 'InstallerWrapperService.exe'. Also, There are many services installed and exe that are run with True Key Here are some of them: Service started: InstallerWrapperService (Service Installer Wrapper TrueKey) Service created: McComponentHostService (McAfee Security Scan Component Host Service) Service created: 0160981474865296mcinstcleanup (McAfee Application Installer Cleanup (0160981474865296)) Service created: TrueKeyScheduler (Intel Security True Key Scheduler) Service created: TrueKey (Intel Security True Key) Service created: TrueKeyServiceHelper (Intel Security True Key Helper Service) Process created: McAfee.TrueKey.ServiceHelper.exe (2124) started by McInst.exe (7100) Process created: McAfee.TrueKey.Service.exe (5868) started by services.exe (856) Process created: McTkSchedulerService.exe (960) started by services.exe (856) After about 10 minutes delay from the initial install of Flash with McAfee products installed to True Key finally Launching. There is a deliberate delay of the installation of True Key for some reason. I tested the actual Install from Intel and there is no delay installing. I do have a way of wiping out those extra files and services that the uninstall do not remove. I have decided to keep some root folders as I do not know if anyone has some legitimate McAfee products, so feel free to delete the root folders shown below if necessary. Here is an sample of what will be removed: 9/26/2016 1:46:02 AM SSScheduler.exe process killed 9/26/2016 1:46:03 AM McAfee Security Scan Found, and uninstalled 9/26/2016 1:46:04 AM C:\ProgramData\McAfee Security Scan - directory removed 9/26/2016 1:46:04 AM McAfee Security Scan 64 bit varriant Not found 9/26/2016 1:46:04 AM InstallerWrapperService.exe found, process killed 9/26/2016 1:46:04 AM True Key installed and process killed 9/26/2016 1:46:20 AM TrueKey uninstalled 9/26/2016 1:46:20 AM 0269371474868615mcinstcleanup Service deleted 9/26/2016 1:46:20 AM IntelBCAsvc Service stopped 9/26/2016 1:46:20 AM C:\ProgramData\McAfee\MCLOGS removed 9/26/2016 1:46:20 AM C:\Program Files (x86)\McAfee\Temp removed 9/26/2016 1:46:20 AM C:\Program Files\Intel Security removed 9/26/2016 1:46:21 AM C:\ProgramData\McAfee\WinCore removed 9/26/2016 1:46:23 AM C:\Program Files\TrueKey removed 9/26/2016 1:46:23 AM Au_.exe killed 9/26/2016 1:46:23 AM C:\Program Files\Intel Security\True Key\Application\truekey.exe Windows killed 9/26/2016 1:46:23 AM If you are interested in this you can look at this thread: PSA - Automated Silent McAfee Security Scan Plus Remover Best Regards Please be sure to mark my post here helpful or answered if I assisted you Thanks

If you are using adblockers this can hide those links. I have found that true myself, however, it can be hit and miss. If you open the said browser in a private browsing windows and then go to the link in question then you should see the options listed to uncheck them. I however do not use that method. I use the manual install method; be it fully automated though, that is how to avoid those pesky little PUPS.

andreass9959504​ This seems to only effect Stage3D related content in Flash Player. This does not effect everyone as you have mentioned. I do not play games like that for one, and others might not as well, so it might not be important to some people, however it still does exist and Flash is a very OLD technology as well. Stage3D works fine on my build of Firefox: Stage3D stress test (b3d engine) 20,000 primitives ~ 15,000,000 triangles (updated with playable demo) « flashing in pu… Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0 It seems to be functioning just fine IMO. Someone also posted that it Flash player 23 should address this matter as well if you read the bug report towards the bottom, and some have got it working, since Flash 23 is out of Beta this hopefully should be resolved.

It is stating that there are multiple instances of the installer running. 1) did you re-boot? 2) did you check task manager for rogue flash related processes? 3) Did you check your control panel under uninstall a program to see if there are any other versions of flash player installed? You also might want to check out my guide for the manual flash install/cleanup process, and if you look carefully there are some tools there to try if you are still having difficulty.

I have been using the 64bit version of Firefox since early 2016 and never seen any flash related problems, it has actually resolved some of my issues. I am currently on V49 myself and have been using 64 bit versions successfully Can you cite any documentation andreass9959504​ to support your facts that Adobe Flash player will not work on 64 bit Firefox? Maybe your Firefox profile is corrupt, or your flash player is corrupt, or even further something going on with your machine? I would suggest manually installing flash via the standalone aka offline installer. If you want to know where to locate that go here: Guide to Manually updating Flash Player for Windows It is listed under the manual process just download and install it.

ALL, Try Firefox 64 bit browser. Not the 32 bit one. there is a good chance you have 32 bit if you do not know. 1) Get Firefox 64 bit version here: Mozilla Firefox Web Browser — Download Firefox in your language — Mozilla 2) uninstall your current 32 bit version 3) Install the 64 bit version. If the problem still persists you could try to make a new Firefox profile: that tutorial is located here: How to back up Mozilla Firefox user profile the correct and easy way - YouTube Best Regards Please be sure to mark my post here helpful or answered if I assisted you Thanks

The password has nothing to do with Adobe! The password is YOUR administrator password on YOUR computer; there is nothing in these forums that will give you the admin password on your machine.
