Question

How Can I Get the FULL Installer for Flash Player 11.1.102.63?

When I try the "Download now" button at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, I only get a stub installer that then requires downloading the remainder of the installer.  I maintain both my own PC and my wife's PC.  I want to install Flash Player 11.1.102.63 twice but download it only once. 

When I instead try the link for "Flash Player for other browsers" under "Windows 32-bit", I get the full installer for Flash Player 11.1.102.62, not the full installer for Flash Player 11.1.102.63. 

The latest version of Adobe Reader is available via FTP at ftp.adobe.com.  Why cannot the latest version of Flash Player also be available there?

At http://forums.adobe.com/message/3952360#3952360, the link for "Flash Player for other browsers" under "Windows 32-bit" finally has Flash Player 11.1.102.63.  While this resolves my immediate problem, I still would prefer Adobe to make Flash Player availabe via FTP from its ftp.adobe.com server.

at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/889580 the link for downloading "flash player 10", "for other browsers", still results in the OLD version of FP 10 being downloaded, not the newly updated version, build 10.3.183.16..

in adobe's security bulletins, it says that you can download the updated versions of "flash player 10" on the "archives" webpage but there are no direct downloads for FP 10 on the webpage, except for downloading the zipped packages, with the "debuggers".. it would be good if there were direct downloads for the updated versions of FP 10..

also, when i go to the "download center" page, http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=BUIGP , if i go there with "firefox 3.6", it recognizes that i am running "firefox 3.6" and offers to install "flash player 10.3", but if i go there with "internet explorer 6", it is not recognized and so i am not offered "flash player 10.3", for installing.. in this situation, i need some other way to get "flash player 10.3" for "internet explorer 6"..

adobe should make things easier for everyone by providing direct downloads for flash player..in my case, i use "flash player 10", so i need direct downloads for it.. yes, it is nice that the downloads are posted in the forum, but why not do it right and have in on some webpage, like on the "archives" webpage where adobe says that "flash player 10" can be downloaded, except that there are no links there for downloading it..

If you don't want to wait until tomorrow, you can download the 11.1.102.63 installers (32-bit & 64-bit EXE installers for IE and for other browsers) from http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=5163

My apologies - the above comment is not correct; currently all three download locations I listed download the older version 11.1.102.62.  I will check with Adobe where the full installers for the 11.1.102.63 version are.

Pat Willener, the Flash Player 10 files also have not been updated, on adobe's servers.. i use Flash Player 10..

The full installers are available from multiple download pages:

This link does actually contain the installers for 11.1.102.63; however it seems to occur quite a lot that an older version is cached in some corporate proxy cache.  Clear your download cache and you should be able to get the latest EXE and MSI installers.

Ditto. Where are the latest versions on http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html ?
