Hi, I am using a Windows 7, 64 bit computer with IE 11. Recently I lost all my flash player content within IE11.  With-in the control panel it shows I have FP 16.0.0.305 installed but yet I can't see FP content. I've went into manage accelerators and both the Flash Object and Java Plug-in are enabled. So I've tried un-installing and re-installing and still do not see any FP content.  I've tried installing older versions to try and just get it working in hopes of up-grading from there, but when they did install still no FP content and the failed installations I would get an error code of "1722"

    Before I started this thread I tried resetting IE, that didn't work. Haven't added anything to the computer. Tried the offline installer, good suggestion, still nothing. I did notice though, when I check under tools>manage add-ons> the shock flash object doesn't show up in the "currently loaded add-ons" , but does show up in "all add-ons" and it does say it's enabled. It is as if its on the computer just not interacting


    Finally got it fixed, had to un-install IE and re-install IE. What a b!tch. because not all IE versions worked. The latest one does, IE11, but when you re-install it you can't tell it's there. There is no shortcut created and you can't find it doing a search in the search box, only the installer package comes up. To put a shorcut on the desktop you need to go to: Control Panel>Network and Sharing Center>See Full Map>Right-click Internet>Click Pin to Start Menu. Then click start and drag the IE icon onto your desktop. What a b!tch

    When you go to that web-pages screen, do you see a bar at the top of the screen asking if you trust that site's Flash Content, and offering a choice? "Allow" or "Do not allow"

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.

    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.
