I have been trying to download the Chrome based  flash player for Vivaldi browser with no success. Initially I  kept getting the error message inital application error and was referred to Adobe webpage saying only one version of player is allowed. I downloaded chrome as it was suggested that Vivaldi could pick this up from the app but the best I get on Vivaldi is the message unable to load application. I am running a 64 bit Windows 10 based laptop, it is annoying as on my windows 7 net book the flash player does activate on the Vivaldi browser. I cannot understand why I cannot download it on windows 10. Any suggestions anyone, Vivaldi moderator is unable to help at this stage. I am UK based.

    Correct answer _maria_

    I am now completely confused, the link above

    C:\Users\**\AppData\Local\Temp\Adobe_ADMLogs.

    does not exist on my laptop and search says it can find no match

    I did insert my user ID where indicated.

    The same thing happens when I try a simple search for Adobe.

    What do I do now please?

    Please try the offline installer posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows 7 and earlier page in the 'Still having problems' section.

    Thank you but this help page for adobe is quite frankly useless and has no

    effective use whatsoever.After the installation failed to load I was

    directed here and asked did I want a different player apart from the one I

    wanted to download. It is impossible to get the player to load on my

    vivaldi browser and I have tried uninstalling and installing all to no

    avail. Yet on my Windows 7 netbook on my vivaldi browser, there is no

    problem with flash player. So far vivaldi have been unable to help and it

    seems everyone else has no problem running flash player on vivaldi.

    THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU. This worked once I had restarted the laptop

    and reopened the browser.

    Is there a similar way to download acrobat to see I can get that to work as

    well?

    Many many thanks for your help and guidance.

    Hi,

    I don't work on Acrobat and am not familiar with the download method(s) they use.  Please post to the Acrobat or Acrobat Reader forums, depending on which Acrobat product you're referring to, for this question.
