I have MacBook Pro with OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 and in the last couple of days my mac freezes whenever i open any window that runs flash player.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall again, but the result is same.  I also try to update my OS with the new OS X El Capitan and as soon as it starts, the Mac again freezes.  The only option to resume is to hard reboot the system.  Can anyone help to recover my problem.

    I would start by disabling hardware acceleration as described in the video troubleshooting guide below.

    Please work through the video troubleshooting guide.

    If you're still stuck, please follow the directions in the guide on providing the dxdiag report and additional information about what you tested and saw.

    Hi,

    Could you please share one flash URL for which this issue occurs, with details like Flash Plyer version, browser name and version.

    Thanks
