Adobe Flash Player isn't installing.

Adobe Flash Player just won't install for me. It tells me I have already got the Flash Player installed when I do not. Image: Gyazo - beee9637f34e0a2dad3c6d999115d06c.png

Next up, whenever I try installing the program, it's always "Not responding..." even after 20 minutes have passed and continuous closing and reopening. Image: Gyazo - cdad7d22b9d0790ecea6f8cd0a1db57b.png

I use Google Chrome, and this problem has only been occurring for the newest update from today. Is there any way to fix this problem?

Hi starj,

Google embeds Flash Player in Chrome and they are the ones that release Flash Player updates for Chrome.  If you're version of Chrome has not yet been updated, you'll want to check for the update manually.

@carm01 I've attempted the reinstallation of Chrome, but it didn't work up to the pepper_flash part, where it said the component was still not updated.

@m_vargas I tried your method, the problem was that Chrome said "Updates have been disabled by the administrator." so I had to go into the Registry and edit it so that it would update. Works normally now, or at least Chrome says it's up to date, but the pepper_flash still says the component is not updated but as it is working, I don't think it matters. Thanks for the assistance.

yea, it was a typo, i fixed it , it showed correct when I updated it this AM , but it is just not consistent between the two, not either of our problems , but just weird and inconsistent.

I will check this other machine and see what is up as it has an image that is a week old on it

FYI

So, on the 64bit beta version everything shows correct in components and plugins , of course that was a full uninstall of the 32bit version.

44.0.2403.81 (Official Build) beta-m (64-bit):

On the 64bit production ( after a uninstall of the 32bit version ) it shows the version 0.0.0.0 ( component not updated) . So IDK what  is going on to be honest, hopefully Google has sorted this out in V44 for everyone. Its just inconsistent. Everything is up to date of course as well
