Flash Player is persnickety ---when you uninstall make sure there are no pieces of it still sitting on the drive. check with control panel, uninstall a program, making sure EVERYTHING having to do with Adobe is taken out. After all is out, check again. Retry version 9, and if it gous in immediately upgrade to 10. Both versions are Vista capable.

I have windows 7 SP 1and IE 10 but can not get Flash Player to work

Still, come on people, you're idiots, haven't you read 'red' that IE10 does not support Flash properly, you just clicked Download???
To fix this you might try to go to Tools-Manage add-ons-Then enable the Flash player if it's disabled.
If that does not help, you'll need to go back to Internet Explorer 9.
Just Uninstall IE10 but for safety install any other browser.

Adobe activex flash player does not work.it did download,but Ican't get it to work.I have vista & explorer 9,I tried everything on the adobe site.

Try uninstalling the flash player first then visit the website:

https://ninite.com/

Scroll down to the section called "Runtimes" and click on "Flash (IE)"

Then Scroll all the way down to the bottom and click on "Get installer"

Download the .exe file and save it on your desktop

Run the installer, remember to close your browser first.

After it installs close the ninite program and open IE (internet explorer) again and visit a website that requires flash (like youtube)

Tried both solutions adobe flash player 10 still failed to register

You may need the latest Java Updates. Go to www.sun.com and download the latest Java Console to your computer. After installation, try to download Adobe Flash Player again. If it does not work then your operating system may not be compatiable with Adobe Flash Player 10. You may need to download an older version such as Adobe Flash Player 9.

You can find older versions of Adobe Flash Player such as 9 on www.cnet.com type in the search field (adobe flash player 9). After the options show up, choose the file to download and install.

Be sure to check your available memory and system speed which are also factors when installing flash software.
