Hi, For some reason I had to uninstall Flash Player Plugin Istaller Active X and Flash Player. Although he has performed all procedures and automatic aid two days have passed and I can not install the Active X control As part of the 'install it I get a notification saying actual words (translated from Italian into English):

The Adobe Flash Player ActiveX is not attempting to install the latest. Visit http://......................player_it to get the latest and most secure.

This message appears just downloading from the site recommended and everything is really frustrating. My OS is VISTA64x Home Premium and the problem persists on both IE8 IE8 x64 x32.

Also stress that I have not installed any ActiveX flash player so why do I feel that I try to install the version that is not especially since the most recent discharge from the link that that message would you recommend?
I hope someone is able to say once and for all how to solve this problem.

    Hi, many people are receiving this message when they have Installed a beta or prerelease version. Go to this site and

    find where it says Uninstallers and select the one for Windows. Follow those instructions and when finished, restart your computer. Then try to Install again. Be sure to restart your computer after running the Installer.

    I solved thank you very much, I might make a little note: on the computer where I found this problem from 2 days installed a trial version of Adobe Production Suite CS5. I noticed that packages downloaded from your link are similar to the designs of the "Suite" CS5 and I wonder: perhaps part of the problem was created by the presence of the suite CS5 in my pc. Is it possible?

    anyway thanks a lot    Sincerly Jinjetto

    Hi, glad that worked for you. Also thanks for the explanation as how you came about this. Yes, from my understanding any Install of the CS5, even a trial version Installs the 10.1 (beta/prerelease) versions. It is not clear to me or others why the 10.1 was used in the CS5 instead of the latest version (10.0.45.2). My only guess is that the 10.1 is very close to being released as a shipping version (final release) to the public. The 10.1 had a target date of the first half of 2010. Perhaps that was the reasoning. This is just my opinion:-)

    As I said, many users are having this problem, not just with the CS5, but they Install the 10.1 thinking that will solve whatever problem they may be having with the latest version.

    Your thread is very helpful for other users that may be having the exact problem that you were. For this reason if you marked your thread as answered, they would read it first.

    Thanks,
