I've installed the standalone flash player so that one of my users may open her .swf files with that instead of a browser as this is her preference. After installing and setting this as the default program for .swf files everything seems to work fine for a couple of days and then out of nowhere, this just disappears and it reverts to IE as the default. I've reinstalled and set this up a few times now, but I'm having trouble finding a permenant solution.

I'm a little bit confused by this, as the standalone player (Projector) does not actually go through an installation process. The download from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html is the player, not an installer.

Where did you put it? And you say the downloaded file just disappears from the computer?

I apologize for my confusion on that one. I have been dowloading the latest file, and you are correct there is no installation I'm just used to associating the Run pop up with installations. I've tried putting the file in a couple of different places including the desktop, the users documents folder, and directly within their C: drive but each time it will work for a little while and then just disappear.
