The Flash Player may fail to install successfully due to permissions
issues with in your registry. There had been a number of users that ran
a script called 'reset.cmd' and this has resolved these permission
issues in the
registry and allowed for a successful installation of the Flash Player.
Warning: The 'reset.cmd' is not an Adobe program. Adobe Systems cannot
be held responsible for damage resulting from running this script. The
'reset.cmd' script involves the Windows System Registry. Editing or
manipulating the registry incorrectly can result in serious system
damage, which may require reinstallation of the operating system. If you
are not comfortable editing the registry, then it's best to take your
machine to a
professional. If you choose to proceed, it is essential to create a
complete system backup and a Windows System Restore Point before
proceeding. Adobe Systems cannot be held responsible for damage
resulting from
this 'reset.cmd' script.
