Updated to the most recent version of adobe flash player and the browser becomes unresponsive even on adobe's confirmation page that flash has been installed. can not click ignore, can not click stop script or anything as it displays the error window and the window disappears before you can even click anything but it comes back and back and back. tired by downloading the install packet, closing firefox out completely and THEN making sure all other programs were shut down, installed, then when it tried to verify it was installed it had an issue. i had to force close firefox, uninstall flash and no issues. I tried getting support just to find the previous version but they didn't even want to help me that much, they are only wanting cash from people for their cloud. they don't care about anyone that doesn't use those programs as they make people search for hours AFTER searching for even more days (two weeks) for fixes. I'm personally done but I want to know what the issue is.
Oh one more thing, i clicked start a new discussion FOUR times, then finally clicked the one at the bottom of the main forum page finally allowing me to post this. VERY VERY BAD FORM ADOBE/CREATIVE.... VERY BAD FORM. oh and since there is no general flash player spot for errors i hope that this one works.. probably guessed wrong... really not making me like adobe any better.

I will accept your information apparently i am on the 32 bit client. i was not totally aware of that i thought i had the 64 bit client. The fun part of it is that Firefox has dropped adobe flash support for 64 bit and gone to html 5. I have finally gotten some answers from a few tech friends that work more closely with browsers. thanks for the information.
so you are recommending a product that will not function with many websites due to limited plug-in support. and i will agree they say what you are saying, but when i install flash player it is listed as npapi by this quote from the same blog site:
this still doesn't present me any relief from the last three week time where i could not use flash player because the update does NOT work. I will install the 64 bit firefox and see if that works and if it does i will continue to use it, but with html5 being used many places (Apple for one) flash is in trouble if the browsers won't work with it.
Firefox is dropping NPAPI plugin support, except for Flash Player, on 32- and 64-bit versions of Firefox, not just 64-bit. I am recommending that you try it. If it works, great. If it doesn't please refer to the resources I previously posted for assistance.
well it is working for now, but this leads me to believe that adobe/creative has made it a requirement that it works with only mozilla 64 bit vs the 32 bit client. otherwise why would it work with 64 bit but give me problems with the 32 bit? and why has it not even been addressed and patched yet? i can not be the only one with issues of flash as of the last update. this still is not totally answered, it is a "PATCH" but either there is an issue with mozilla 32bit which is the normal download when looking for it as i had to go LOOKING for the 64 bit client, or the issue is with adobe. and my opinion of adobe support still stands, they could have at least said try the 64 bit client or given me a link to the older flash that did work with 32bit.
yes it seems to be answered, but if i go back to the mozilla 32 bit client, i will have to remove flash player and that is not an answer to this issue, an answer would prevent the issue from occuring once again.
There's no requirement that it only works with 32-bit versus 64-bit. Since you're on a 64-bit machine, moving to 64-bit Firefox will allow to take advantage of performance and stability improvements, as well as use the native Firefox NPAPI plug-in sandbox, instead of Flash Player's bolt-on sandbox for 32-bit systems. This provides you with meaningful defenses against malware (we strongly advise against browsing with Protected Mode disabled), but the architectural benefits of a native sandbox provide better performance through reduced overhead.
I know that the 32 bit and 64 bit versions can co-exist on the system, but if I was using the 32 bit version of mozilla why is flash not working with that version, and thus making me use the 64 bit version? I do not disagree that it would be better but with issues using 32bit mozilla why is it not being addressed for those that still have 32 bit systems??? this is where my issue is, not that i had to go to 64 bit for it to work, that is great but there are still people with 32 bit machines that can not RUN 64 bit applications at all.
why don't you idiots kill flash? This is so rediculous having an update from you jokers that does not work. I have wasted over an hour trying to get this piece of junk flash update to work just to browse the net. Jump through whoops to try to get it to install and still nothing. I am so sick of this crap from you Adobe. I'm looking into starting a class action lawsuit for all the wasted time.
quadrant, i'm not a fan of flash as you can see here. but being nasty is not the answer. Lawsuits are not the answer. I have been wrestling with this last update that went wrong for 3 weeks now. and i finally have it working. The full answer has not been given but here is what i know.
Freki42, perhaps your right. I was tired, trying to work and super short on patience. I take responsibility for my quick reaction. I have been using adobe products for 20 plus years. And most of the time they do a fantastic job. I still think something needs to be done about the flash updates that don't work or seemingly didn't need updating in the first place. Time is something I don't have a lot of and to waste it trying to fix something that was working fine really bugs me.
I definitely agree, there is a problem and it has not been fixed. I don't have a lot of time to figure out what is wrong. I don't expect them to know everything but to relegate support only to forums makes it almost impossible to fix things if without days and days of coming back here. and it still is not fixed nor is it being addressed by adobe.
chrome has it's own version of flash dedicated to just chrome. that's why it works. mine is working because i have gone up to the 64 bit version of firefox, installed adobe and it's working so... the big question to adobe still stands why is there an issue with flash and the 32 bit version of firefox.
I looked at Task Scheduler it has Adobe Flash player Updater and Adobe Flash Player PPAPI Notifier , at the bottom it says configure for Vista, and Windows Server 2008? These updaters were installed 11/29.
No that is not the question. All video works ok. I do not play games. I have windows 10 for over 3 years. All Flash updates come from Microsoft in their auto updates. This is the first time I have ever received an update message directly from Adobe. It looks legit. Maybe its ok but I do not feel comfortable doing a download from a message. In Windows 10 you cannot go into flash and do a manual update, Flash is integrated into Edge and Internet Explorer.
If you use Chrome, there is no need to install the PPAPI plugin manually as Google embeds Flash Player in Chrome. To uninstall it and stop receiving the update notifications go to Control Panel > Programs & Features. Locate the Adobe Flash Player PPAPI entry, double-click and follow onscreen prompts to uninstall it.
If you use a different Chromium-based browser (e.g. Opera, Brave, etc) then you should update Flash to the most recent version. Adobe also recommends users select the update option 'Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)'. This option updates Flash Player within 24 hours of a new version being available with no user interaction required.
Thank you for the info, but lets get to specifics. I am running Windows 10 Edge browser. All Microsoft updates have gone through successfully including recent Adobe flash updates. Were these updates supposed to upgrade me to 32.0.0.101? Apparently they did not.
The issue appears to be resolved. On Dec 12 I received an update from Microsoft that upgraded my active x flash to 32.0.0.101. So edge is current and ok. However, on Nov 31 Adobe downloaded PPAPI plugin 31.0.0.153. The Nov 31 installation date was in all the PPAPI programs in the flash files. This is totally weird. I received no notification of this download, and had no other browsers on my system but Edge and IE. Once the PPAPI plug in was downloaded I immediately got notifications to upgrade the PPAPI?
The only thing I can think of that may have caused this was I had an old version of Chrome on the system that I deleted a while back. Perhaps some old Chrome or Adobe stuff was still in the system that triggered the Adobe download. I don't know and probably never will. I have no desire to dig into Adobe again.
Note that, on Windows 10, this update option only applies to Flash Player NPAPI (for Firefox) or PPAPI (for Chromium-based browsers). It does not apply to Flash Player ActiveX for IE/Edge as the distribution of the embedded Flash Player ActiveX for IE/Edge is managed by Microsoft via Windows Updates.
Personally, I think that if was gone in the previous version (1909) because I had removed it then (more than a year ago) , 20H2 should have left it that way, instead of putting it back on and sending me updates to remove it.
even with revised or updated 20H2 ESD/ISO install media image files (like with build 19042.631 or higher), the KB4577586 update for 20H2 is still needed to remove the embedded activex edition of adobe flash (KB4577586 will NOT remove the NPAPI and PPAPI versions of flash as those versions should be removed separately thru flash uninstallers from adobe)
I am trying to remove Flash Player from Windows 10. If I use the uninstaller on the app list, the program is removed, but upon restart, it reappears in my app list. The same thing happens if I use the Adobe uninstaller. And I have used the Microsoft uninstall they pushed out a few weeks ago.
