Solve : Can't install Flashplayer? |
|
Answer» I am running XP Pro ( new build), with a new 360 GB HD. I tried to install ADOBE Flashplayer as a Firefox add-on, and when it begins installing, it gives me a message that I don't have enough HD space. My device manager/storage management, says that 95% of the HD is free. What is wrong?What's the full error message and where are you downloading the Flash Player?The message reads that I need to free up more space, and I'm downloading from Adobe's website.Try creating a new Firefox Profile. this actually sounds like a problem i had installing a game on the ps3. it sounds like there is an error with the flash player installer. try adding enough content to take up the same or roughly the same ammount of space that the fully installed player would take up.What? Quote My device manager/storage management, says that 95% of the HD is free.i know it doesn't seem to make sense but it is what i did to solve the problem on my PS3.It does not work when I create a new profile in Firefox. The computer, when i go to disk management > storage devices...reads that 97% of the space on the HD is free. There should be about a thousand times more room than this flashplayer needs. There is an error somewhere in the adobe installer, or in how it is looking at my HD. Like I said, I have downloaded this application 3 times, and erased it everytime, before I tried it again. I just downloaded a video application for Firefox, and it worked perfectly, so its Adobe.Here right? http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ When installing, can you make sure it's looking at the right drive (hard disk). Exactly. I can't figure out a way to make sure what drive it is going to, I only have one HD.i know what i have said MAY not make a lot of sense but just hear me out. As i said i had a similar problem installing a game on my PS3. it was DUE to a programing error on the game disk that caused the game to incorrectly read my HDD and think that it was full (it wasn't). To fix it i had to trick the game by adding content that took up roughly the same amount of space that the game would take up. Some how this tricked the game into thinking that i had freed up space, when in fact i had added data. In the END it worked and all i'm saying is that you should give it a try for your problem.Hmmmm....I guess it's worth a shot. |
