Flash player does not install (or either update)

Hello,

I am using:

32-bit Windows 7

Firefox 33.0.3

For some months now, it seemed that I couldn't update my Flash Player. I was getting the update notification, I was downloading it every time but things seemed to stop after I hit "Install". However, I never paid more attention and carried on with other things. After, today's notification (I had 4 same update files in Downloads folder) I decided to make things work. I tried to update it manually but it seemed to never start installing.

So, I uninstalled everything. Then I tried to install it again and the same thing happened.

After I verify that I am the administrator of the computer the installation progress bar never appears. Although, the Process runs on my computer (checked through task manager). It never appears to get fully installed. I have to manually end the process to run the next try, only to conclude to the same outcome.

I have tried to disable some Adobe stuff on my Firefox during the installation in case they conflict but no luck.

For some reason Pat, those links that you posted, are bad links.  Maybe it is my computer, but, I click onto the link and opens to an Error page.  I too am having problems with Flash Player.  I have it installed, but, when I play online games, it says "You don't have Flash Player installed", with a link to download it.  I try to download, it locks up, so I have to reboot and retry.  BUT, if I do the Flash Player Test to verify that I have it... it PASSES, so I am confused.

I have Windows 7, x64 bit

using Internet Explorer 11 and up to date.
