Shockwave Flash was causing my browser 40.0.3 to start videos I did not want to play, I added an add-on to block Shockwave Flash; however, this became very cumbersome to enable and disable when i go to sites that required Flash like a greeting card site. I found another add-on called "Video without Flash", it told me to remove "shockwave Flash" I did, now I can not get any video on the greeting card site. Is the problem that I removed Shockwave Flash or something else, I have the latest Flash Player from Adobe.
I guess I have not been very clear. I do not have any flash plug in, it is gone. I removed it when another plug in told to remove it (my mistake). I have uninstalled Flash Player which according to Adobe removes all of it. Then I reinstalled it and still NO flash player and NO flash plug in.
I was being a dunce, I thought I was looking at "plug-ins" but was looking in "add-one" when I looked in plug-ins I found shockwave flash director, made it always active, whet back to make sure it took, didn't find it but found Shockwave Flash which was in "never" status, made a,ways active rebooted and all was well. Then when I when to Adobe and checked to see if Flash player was installed or current, it was there. Hope this helps you understand why I was having such a difficult time
Adobe Flash player may still be called Shockwave Flash in some places still. The Shockwave (for director) Player is a different Plugin and is not needed for Flash to work. The Shockwave player plugin is used little now days compared to the Flash player.
It seems like my teachers like to use a handful of old websites with old shockwave objects that require shockwave player 10.4 or earlier. I have my KACE set up to install Shockwave to computers missing shockwave using a smart label and from that point I use KACE patching to keep it up to date. I occasionally update the installer so that when machines are imaged or added they will get a recent player. Installer is simply set up using sw_lic_full_installer.exe /S. I even tried using the MSI but I found that the patching did not patch that version and would just install a secondary copy of the updated version. Not sure why the MSI and EXE would install two different versions. If I push out an old version of Shockwave the patching updates and removes it.
Any reason why this is occurring? I would prefer for the lecture to be HTML but fullscreen like in SWF. If that's not possible and need to use the SWF, what I need to tell my students to have installed on their computer before beginning the lesson. I am guessing simply just shockwave player, but does anyone have the system requirements they recommend to a student before they begin a lesson?
