Recently Flash player started hanging every single time I try to watch a video. I have crash reports from Firefox, but it happens also in Edge and IE. I tried reinstalling and installing older and beta versions of Flash, but nothing worked. Here are the crash reports:

[@ hang | WaitForMultipleObjectsEx | MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx | MsgWaitForMultipleObjects | F_1152915508_____________…

Windows 10 machine, new, just setting everything up. Driver issue?

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Brother please do a clean instalation. It should fix your issue.

I tried that, no luck. I used the uninstaller, then deleted the folders and appdata, restarted, reinstalled. Still hangs every time in every browser. Other ideas?

In the case of Edge and IE, it's probably drivers.

You can try disabling hardware acceleration in IE:

And/or you can disable it in Flash:

For Firefox, that crash report is the generic "something hung between Flash and Firefox" message. Moving to 64-bit Firefox should improve things considerably on that front.
