I am using Windows 7 and have installed the latest Adobe Flash Player 10.1.102.64 (from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/) but i keep getting software updates prompt to install Flash Player 10.1.85.3. Everytime i click Install, the updates will end up with Failed status and it has become annoying as it prompt me to upgrade very often.

Please help!

    Can you see the Flash animation at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and does it show a version information under it?  If so, what is your installed FP version?

    Also, what web browser are you using?

    Finally, is your Windows version 32-bit or 64-bit?

    I can see the flash provided in your link.

    Version Info:

    You have version 10,1,102,64 installed

    I am using Chrome & IE 8, but the upgrade seems to be meant for IE as the full name for the updates is this: "Adobe Flash Player 10.1.85.3 for Internet Explorer"

    OS: Windows 7 Enterprise, 32 bit

    That is strange, that it would try to "upgrade" to an older version of Flash Player...?

    Can you tell me what files you have in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash ?
