For flash player,
I'm using chrome and firefox, somehow flash player just won't work
I checked the flash player is installed, and can see the animation at no. 5

But when I tries to view a video from cbs site, it says "Please install Adobe Flash Player to view this video"
And also there's a game I wanted to play on my computer(not browser), and it tells me "Adobe Flash Player or an HTML5 supported browser is required for video playblack. Get the latest Flash Player..."
'
I checked my chrome and firefox plugins, both are enabled and always allowed to run. Yet why this problem persists?
Also note that this is a new laptop.
For shockwave,
I checked this site:
Adobe - Test Adobe Shockwave Player
Somehow it worked for firefox but not chrome?

Please scan your system with some antivirus. You can try uninstalling the flash player Uninstall Flash Player | Windows and then reinstall the flash player from get.adobe.com/flashplayer.
Chrome browser have built in flash player and they present at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\42.0.2311.90\PepperFlash\pepflashplayer.dll" as you specified .

I've done all the steps, un-installed them. I went to https://get2.adobe.com/flashplayer/ which tell me that Your Google Chrome browser already includes Adobe® Flash® Player built-in. Google Chrome will automatically update when new versions of Flash Player are available.
So which should I install?

Please use other browser like firefox to open get.adobe.com/flashplayer. Please try cbs site on chrome and check whether its working now.

If you're still stuck, I'd recommend just doing a clean install of Chrome. I don't see anything obviously broken, but the Chrome install might be damaged.
Flash Player is a built-in component of Chrome, so there's not really a lot that would normally go wrong.
