    Hello All,  The usual cause is within your 'Privacy Settings'.  Uncheck the box that says; 'Disable toolbars & extensions when InPrivate Browsing starts.  Path: your browser\tools\InternetOptions\privacy\InPrivate\....  Be safe and uncheck both boxes.   deb4417.

    Hi caneck, You'll need to provide browsers used and versions. Also did you use the Adobe Uninstaller first prior to trying to Install that latest version of Flash Player? What version is Installed now and what version are you trying to Install?

    Test here with all browsers: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

    Thanks,

    Hi Pam, Since your computer info and issue is most likely different than the OP, this link is where you would "start a discussion" http://forums.adobe.com/community/webplayers/flash_player?view=discussions&start=0

    When you do, list your computer info, browsers and versions, etc. with your first post and a description of the problem you are having.

    Also, use the edit feature on the last message you posted and remove your email address. This is a public Forum and you'll most likely receive a lot of Spam!

    Thanks,
