Flash install notes for Vista

[Guest Carlos]

I came accross this interesting article regarding problems when running

Adobe's Flash in both Vistas (x86 and x64).

Essentially what the author claims is that, if you have recurring prompts

for installing Flash even if you did a zillion times, you might want to try

this:

"For Vista (32 bit):

 

Open File Explorer

Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash

Right-click on FlashUtil9f (or whatever version you downloaded)

Select Run as Administrator

If you haven't turned UAC off, then you'll get a prompt. Let the wizard

install

Enjoy Flash

For Vista x64:

 

Open File Explorer

Navigate to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash

Right-click on FlashUtil9f (or whatever version you downloaded)

Select Run as Administrator

If you haven't turned UAC off, then you'll get a prompt. Let the wizard

install

Enjoy Flash"
