Flash Player version that I tried to install :

Installed versions of Java :

Hello,
I had Flash Player (the latest version prior to 11.5.502.110) installed on my computer.
After Windows startup, Adobe tried to auto-update Flash Player. My browser opened the following page :
https://get3.adobe.com/flashplayer/update/plugin/
So I downloaded then ran the file :
install_flashplayer11x32au_chrd_aih.exe
During installation I got an Internet Explorer Script Error problem :
Internet Explorer Script Error
An error has occured in the script on this page
Line : 1
Char : 12948
Error : Object expected
Code : 0
URL : http://127.0.0.1:2083/app/_js/adobe.js
Do you want to continue running scripts on this page? Yes/No
Choosing "Yes" or "No" to running scripts made no difference. The program did not install Flash Player.
I uninstalled the previous version of Flash player (using Windows Control Panel), rebooted my computer and downloaded Flash Player from Adobe's website, making sure I chose :
Step 1 - Windows 7/Vista/XP/2008/2003
Step 2 - Flash Player 11 for Other Browsers
* Not to install Google Chrome *
I had the same Internet Explorer Script Error again.
I disabled Norton Internet Security, tried to install Flash Player and got the same error again.
I don't know why I'm getting an Internet Explorer Script Error if my Flash Player download is specifically for other browsers than Internet Explorer.
My Internet Explorer / Internet Options / Security settings are set to Medium-high default level.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

Download and run the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.ht...
P.S. you shouldn't have multiple versions of Java installed; I suggest you uninstall the two 1.6 versions.

Thanks for your help, Pat. I'm grateful for you letting me know that running multiple versions of Java is not recommended.
Get ready! An upgraded Adobe Community experience is coming in January.
