I have done all of that, and successfully downloaded the installer.  however, after I run the installer there are no files, no visual notification under 'Start' as usual, and after the install, if I search, no Adobe flash anywhere.

Many thanks for this!   I managed to install the Flash Player with this successfully after many failed attempts before.

Thanks again
