Question

Adobe Presenter upgrades and Death of Flash

I have several Adobe Presenter lectures and presentations that I need to edit and update. Can you provide instructions on what I will need to purchase to ensure that the program I use will work after Flash goes away? Related questions: 1) I have v.11. Has Adobe Presenter been upgraded (or will it be upgraded) to be able to play without Flash? 2) Do I need to purchase some other software to update my Adobe Presenter presentations, e.g. Adobe Captivate? 3) Should I assume that I will need to rerecord all my presentations in some other software? Thank you!

I moved this post to Captivate because Presenter is part of the e-learning community and not the Creative Cloud community.

Adobe Presenter 11.1 is $14.99/month.  Transform your Powerpoint 2016 slides and HD videos into interactive e-learning courses.  Output to HTML5 for viewing on desktops and mobile devices.

Thank you, Nancy,

I have followed your message and I upgraded to Adobe Presenter 11.1

However, now when I go to "publish" my PowerPoint, I receive this message: "You will need to upgrade Adobe Flash Player before using this option". When I click on okay in order to upgrade, I am taken to https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-10-ie.html 

which indicates that I already have Flash on the test and states "Flash Player is integrated with Internet Explorer in Windows 10.  You do not need to install Flash Player."

Can you please provide me instructions to get this working?

Thank you in advance!

Update: I was able to get to publish by downloading enable controls zip for Flash: https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Registry-keys-to-reenable-7cd9f723

I've moved this from the poorly named Community Help forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the Get Started forum so that proper help can be offered.
