Installation Issues

Question

I'm trying to use the flash player through Microsoft edge but it never worked and I checked the troubleshooting options adobe provided me with but still didn't work. I uninstalled it from my computer and now am trying to reinstall it but every time I go to there official site it only gives me the troubleshooting options and won't let me install it. What do I do?

Microsoft embeds Flash Player in IE/Edge on Windows 10, and aside from purposely unlocking and deleting the files, there is no easy way to uninstall Flash Player for IE/Edge. Due to the embedding of Flash Player in IE/Edge, it is considered a component of the browser and a separate installer is not available. You may be able to restore Flash Player in IE/Edge by running Windows update and installing the update that contains Flash Player for IE/Edge. If that doesn't work you may need to reset Windows 10.
