Question

online installer crashes - Win7

Why do I have to "apply for license" to use the Web?
The application page says "Signing In..." for about half-hour already and does nothing.

I cannot install Flash Player using installer from Adobe website because it crashes (Win7).
I cannot download .msi/.exe installers because now I need "a license".

Without Flash I cannot watch youtube educational videos and because if that in next turn I risk losing a job.

This is terrible, and so unprofessional I cannot even begin to describe.

What is the file name of the installer file that is crashing?

Without Flash I cannot watch youtube educational videos

YouTube has defaulted to HTML5 for several  years now. Please post a direct link to the YouTube video that purports to need Flash.

I branched your post to a new discussion as it's not relevant to the topic you posted to.  Unfortunately, your post containing the excerpt was in reply to someone else (not me) and it wasn't transfered over when I branched it.  Here is the contents:

Also, I dont know why it tries to access the Internet via proxy-server, while I clearly defined in my default browser Firefox 56.0.1 that Internet access is "no proxy".

As for the proxy server, please check the following:

  • Launch Control Panel and navigate to Internet Options
  • In the Internet Options window, go to the Connections tab
  • Click on LAN Settings
  • what is the LAN Settings option selected (if any)?

Please provide the following files and I will forward them to the online installer team for further review:

Upload all 3 files to cloud.acrobat.com/send using the instructions at How to share a document  and post the link to the uploaded files in your reply.

Offline installers are posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows 7 and earlier page in the 'Still having problems' section.  But please do provide the crash dump file and the online installer log files so that the team can investigate why the installer is crashing.

Thank you.
