Downloaded Flash Player many times, still prompted to download

Every time I try to watch a video, I get a prompt to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (11.7-something).  I have done this repeatedly over the past several days but still get the prompt.  I already have Chrome downloaded on my computer.  I tried uninstalling my Flash version, rebooting my computer and this is just getting repetitious because nothing works.  I'm wasting way too much of my time just trying to get this to work.  What's going on?

How can I get my computer to hold the update I've taken the time to run.

Do I have to use Chrome now, not Internet Explorer, every time I want to watch a video?  I do not like to use Chrome.

    Hi,

    Sorry to hear about the challenges that you face.

    Adobe Flash Player is directly integrated with Google Chrome and is enabled by default. Window 8 + Internet Explorer 10 also comes with integrated Flash Player. So you need not do any installation or updates for Google Chrome or Window 8 +IE 10 combo.

    But for other OS versions and browsers, you need to update (automatically or manually based on your installation setup) Flash Player.

    If you are facing installation issues, please refer to the following pages:

    Hope the above helps.

    With regards,

    Thanks for your reply. My computer says the Flash Player 11.7... is installed, so why can't I view videos when I am in Internet Explorer? How do I find out which Windows (7 or 8) I have?
