Hello, I have these on my computer and wonder if I could uninstall any of them, as they seem to be duplicated.

HI reginap24510620

Those file sizes are way too small to be either the non-debug or debug versions of Flash Player, and the installation is probably corrupt. The file size should be in the 19MB file size range for all player types (for both non-debug and debug versions).

If you haven't uninstalled them yet, please do the following:

Select the 'Details' view
Make sure the 'Version' and 'Size' columns are visible
Post a screenshot showing all of the Flash Player entries

I don't have a "details" view but that's ok, I don't need to delete if they all have a "job", just don't want anything on my pc that I don't need.

Click on the menu and then select Details

To display the Version and Size columns, right-click on one of the column headers and then select Version and Size

Whether or not you need them depends on whether or not you use Flash Player on the various browsers (IE, Firefox, Opera). If you don't, you can uninstall them. If you do, since the program size is way too small it most likely won't function correctly. The reason I'm asking for the screenshot is you stated they were duplicate entries, further indication that there is a corrupt installation since it's only possible to have one installation (of each player type) installed on a system at a time.

If you do need Flash Player, run the uninstaller, then go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the latest version. If you use multiple browsers, you'll need to do this for each browser as different browsers support different plugin types (e.g. ActiveX Control for IE, NPAPI for Firefox/Safari, PPAPI for Opera and Chromium-based browsers).
