How to install Flash Player 8

[Guest Stubby]

Win2KSP4. I'm logged in as an Administrator. Internet zone allows

download, init and play for ActiveX controls. But Flash Player doesn't

install. Adobe.com has hundreds of pages of text but nothing helps. I

downloaded and ran their SubInACL info. What else is there left to try?

TIA

Hello Stubby,

 

What error message do you get? Check also the event viewer.

 

Best regards

No error messages!

Nothing in Event Viewer. I installed Adobe Reader 8 and I see those

successful completion events.

I would like to check the access SYSTEM has to various directories but I

have forgotten how.

You might want to try installing Adobe AIR. I think that it includes

flash player with it.

Re: How to install Flash Player 8

 

Adobe AIR is a cross-operating system runtime that lets developers

combine HTML, Ajax, Adobe Flash®, and Flex technologies to deploy rich

Internet applications (RIAs) on the desktop. Adobe AIR allows developers

to use familiar tools such as Adobe Dreamweaver® CS3, Flex® Builder™ 3,

Flash CS3 Professional, or any text editor to build their applications

and easily deliver a single application installer that works across

operating systems.

 

How does Adobe AIR compare to Flash Player?

 

Adobe Flash Player is a browser plug-in that provides advantages for

users and content creators in the browser, including the ability to

deliver RIAs in the browser. Adobe AIR incorporates technologies

originally developed in Flash Player and enables rich Internet

applications on the desktop. Adobe AIR and Flash Player provide

complementary deployment methods for the RIAs.

Hope it helps.
