Microsoft embeds Flash Player in IE and Edge on Windows 10 and there isn't a separate installer for it. You can try running Windows Update to see if it'll reinstall Flash Player

Contact Microsoft for assistance

Resetting Windows may have catastrophic consequences (e.g. data loss), so I would recommend backing up anything you need if you choose this option.
