deploying Flash player with Active Directory Group Policy

[Guest]

I manage hundreds of computers at several different locations and have the nightmare of updating Flash Player everytime a new version comes out. The file I download from Adobe's site is an .exe and does not contain a .msi file for Active directpry deployment. How can I use group policy in Active Directory to deploy this software to all my computers without me having to individually touch each machine?

so did any one ever send you an email or pm on the solution? I was searching the web for this exact topic and so far only found your question.

12 days later - you'd think someone here would have typed up a solution........

Officially these forums are user-to-user, and not an official channel for support. So we do not always monitor them. Support is available through http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer.

That said, the correct answer to this question is to complete the Flash Player distribution license. This gives you access to the MSI's and the legal right to distribute them:
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/

After that you would go to the IT Admin guide that Ken pointed out.
