Error installing Flash player PPAPI

When you have Flash install errors 99% of the time they have to do with the FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe not being able to be replaced.

Some Flash installs set ONLY System permissions on C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed folders so Administrators have ZERO permissions to delete that file and that file HAS to be deleted to update Flash with the newer version.

So if you EVER have any errors with Adobe Flash installs navigate to C:\windows\SysWOW64\Macromed and take ownership of all files and folders and DELETE all the contents of the Flash folder and reinstall.

Hi,

Could you delete the existing FlashInstall.log file from the affected machine, download PPAPI Flash Player from Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions  and share the new FlashInstall.log file. To get the location of the logs you can go through Where do I find the Flash Player installation log on Windows?​Upload/share the log file. To see how to share the logs you can go through How to share a document. Once you upload the logs please share the link of the uploaded file here.

Thanks!
