The evil yellow/orange bar appeared at the top of every single page of every website. It was quite annoying. So I went to the Adobe website and copied the following instructions:

How do I fix almost all Shockwave and Flash Player issues?

You can resolve almost all difficulties encountered with the Adobe Shockwave and Flash Players by taking the following steps:

For Windows:

Uninstall Shockwave Player 10 via the Control Panel. Go to Add/Remove programs, and choose Macromedia or Adobe Shockwave Player.

To remove the Flash Player download the uninstaller here:

*IMPORTANT; After uninstalling both Players, restart your computer.

Then reinstall both the Shockwave and Flash Players here:

I followed the instructions to the letter. (rather simple, wouldnt you say) Uninstalling was easy but every time I try to download, it tells me I have Chrome and it is taken care of automatically so It wont let Me do anythingq

Does anyone know how I get my flashplayer back? Aw snap it crashed.

    Flash is built-in in Chrome and not a plug-in. Reinstall Chrome entirely.

    It was very difficult to download Chrome. (6 tries). Now it not not only

    displays the yellow/orange stripe but a window is displayed asking me to

    send a error report to Google. Then it completely disables chrome and makes

    it impossible to use chrome.

    Uggh, sounds severe. Have you deleted all Chrome caches? Is the Google Updater doing something? If this doesn't work, I recomemnd you uninstall everything from Google, flush the caches and try again. Something is seriously wrong here...
