Help..
all of a sudden my flash player has stopped working under one of my accounts.
it only occurs in IE7...using firefox is ok...
this account is an administrator account, but not the top administrator
account.
With my other Vista accounts flash player works great, even the standard
accounts...
this is totally wierd that it only happens with just this one account..
any help is appreciated...thanks

Hi mearsfan42,

Login as the Admin

First download the uninstaller to your desktop from here

http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157

Before running this uninstaller be sure to read the instruction and close all
running programs.

Open the following folder C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash

Run the uninstaller

What files are left in this folder? C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash

If there are files left, delete the Flash folder.

download the latest Flash Player from here: www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer

I have been experiencing the same trouble. When I first set up the user
account, everything is working fine, and then suddenly it stops functioning.
One user account will work fine, and then next time I go on it doesn't, and I
cannot correct without deleting user and starting over again. The program
shows as existing. I have followed the instructions given on this post, via HP
supports recommendation, but it has not solved the problem. I have to delete
the user, and start again. It doesn't matter if it is the administrator
account or not. I just repeated this process again. I don't want to delete the
account that is not working properly, due to the fact that all my current email
is there (I forgot to save on server when I set up again) along with all the
other saved data. Besides, I shouldn't have to continually go through this.
Any help would be appreciated.
