Folder location for flash player?

[mytownboaz]

HI

What is supposed to be the folder location for the latest flash player?

Windows vista home premium, 32 bit?

It's in the sys 32 folder but i don't thnik it should be there?

Hi, Yes that is exactly where it should be. Why would you think it is not supposed to be there?

C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash  

You have the Flash files there and then depending on whether you Installed Flash Player in IE or Firefox or other browsers you would have a Flash Player add on for each browser.

Thanks,

Macromedia usually was in app data not in the sys 32?

i use another flv remover and it says that thw win folder is not right?

Hi, evidently I don't understand what you are referring to. Perhaps with some information as what operating sytem you are using, browsers etc. would help. What is the flv remover for?

Thanks,

P.S. ok I just saw that you are using Vista, SP1 or SP2?

Hi, I think the location you want is the one that Pat gave you. I work with the one I gave you, since that is where the Flash files are as far as I have ever known. Any other locations I am not familiar with.

Thanks,

I don't know where to look in that 3rd-party forum; you better tell us exactly where it is (a direct link), or explain what you want to know.

[mytownboaz]

the link i provided

Ok, I see now - I always looked at the first link, which is just a forum.  The second is actually a forum thread.

So you want to know where Flash Cookies are stored?  It's at %APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects (%APPDATA% being the environment variable that points to your Application Data folder).

I can't seem to get an answer on the better privacy forum, but if it says to not have the flash files in sys 32, the target for the addon  that i have tried to use links to the app data roaming, not the sys32 win folder, so i am  seeing they say to reinstall this to another party, if that's the case i need to also.

I just started trying to use this after i found all the embedded flv and lso items, realizing this is not an adobe issue, but if this is a user community forum maybe someone else  had the same issue?

I really, really, really don't understand what you want to know!  Couldn't you clearly formulate your question?

These are the Flash Player locations used on Windows

• FP plugin/add-on:
  • 32-bit: %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\Macromed\Flash
  • 64-bit %SYSTEMROOT%\syswow64\Macromed\Flash
• Local Shared Objects: %APPDATA\Macromed\Flash Player
• Asset Cache: %APPDATA%\Aodbe\Flash Player

[mytownboaz]

no i can't make it any clearer i'll go elsewhere

I do not understand what the question is - there are two links pointing to a 3rd-party forum.  Many topics in there - what do you want to know?

%APPDATA%\Macromedia is where the Flash Player settings are kept.

Are you still unable to send me a PM?  Please try again, as I have opened a topic in the forums' forum.

Hi Pat, thanks. It is 9:23PM EDT and got the same message when sending you a PM. Send me a PM and tell me where is the forum's forum.

Thanks,
