Answer» I just bought a new gateway, had antivirus and spysweeper put on buy the geek squad. I need flash PLAYER to view most web based videos,right ? I can't dl it! HELPDid you try to DOWNLOAD it from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/? What happened when you tried to download it?nothing happenes, nothing at all ! I've found the answer at ADOBE Forum,but I couldn't make it work. This is what I found at ADOBE. I seem to not have this file, 'FlashUtil9b.exe' Hi all, I installed Windows Vista Ultimate last weekend, and LIKE many I found that the flash player did not work on many sites including YOUTUBE etc.
Well, the good news is I think I have the fix that many of you have been looking for:
I navigated my way to:
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
Then right clicked over both 'Flash9b.ocx' and 'FlashUtil9b.exe', and chose properties.
In properties choose the 'security' tab > Click on the 'everyone' account, and the button called 'edit' and then tick the box called 'allow full control' and also choose your own Windows local account name.
Once you have done this for both files run the FlashUtil9b.exe and it should install and update and tell you to restart. Do so and you should find that YouTube and other sites that use flash now work.
Try to digest this: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=4da116d3I was having a similar problem with the player. Mine would only work on 1 of my user accounts (I have 4 accounts). Anyway, I found help in a Forum at Adobe. You have to go to the adobe.com web site and find THEIR uninstall program for the Flash Player. Do NOT uninstall the program using your Add and REMOVE program feature on your computer. After you get it uninstalled, download their "stand alone" version of the Flash Player. Make sure you get the stand alone version. It worked for me and countless others in that forum. Good luck.I dont have flash player on my Mozilla Firefox, even though i tried it several times...
