I'm trying to install Adobe Flash Player 12.  I have tried it on Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. 

I continually get the message "The user does not have sufficient privileges to install Adobe Flash Player"  

How can I install Adobe Flash Player?? 

Any help is appreciated!!

Are you installing as an Administrator user?

If yes, try a clean install as described in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315

Hi Pat,

Thank you so much for your reply.  Yes I am the Administrator. Nothing worked until I went into my security and disabled my firewall and my security tab.  Then Flash Player 12 downloaded without a hitch.  Then I quickly re-enabled both my firewall and security settings.   I have no idea why it worked but it did.

Thank you so much for your assistance!!

I wish you a great week!

Sincerely,

Lori
