A required file (C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\activex.vch:5) could not be written due to insuf
I gave up on flash several months ago due to the amount of time I was spending trying to get updates installed. I thought I'd try this again as I have friend asking for help with this. I'm astounded the issue has not been resolved.
This computer is Win 7 Home Premium. I'm now using IE 11. I'm trying to install the Adobe version that is the download section.
I have run through the clean install several times. I've rebooted after all the steps. I've used the uninstaller and offline installer.
Anti-Virus is suspended.
SAFE mode did not help either.
Run from an ADMIN authority userid.
The error is "A required file (C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\activex.vch:5) could not be written due to insufficient permissions."
Can anyone help with this? The log files are below. Thanks!
