Error: General Installation Error

I have a Mac OS X 10.9.4 and have been trying to update the flash player. I tried the first few times and it keeps stopping around 77%. I tried unistalling and then reinstalling, but that stopped it sooner. I can not get the flash player to install at all now. Thoughts? And although I know some things, I am not a computer geek, so please explain where I need to go on my computer to change things.

Thanks

If you boot your machine into safe mode, can you complete the installation?
