I work for a large company and we are about to rollout Flash9d.ocx. Per our
testing, we have to test the scenario that we might have to downgrade back to
Flash9c.ocx if for some reason we need to after we upgrade to Flash9d.ocx.
Here is where my problem lies. I can successfully unregister and remove
Flash9d.ocx but running the FlashUtil9d.exe -uninstallunlock and then regsvr32
/u on the OCX. After I do this I try to register Flash9c.ocx. The
registration is successful but I can't view any flash sites. Also the attrib
on FlashUtil9c.exe and Flash9c.ocx are NOT readonly so I know that it is not
registering correclty even though it says it does. I can however reregister
Flash9d.ocx and it works fine.
System Environment:
Logged in as Local Administrator
Tried the Flash Uninstall Utility

What do you think is going on here??

Hi Robert,

If you previously installed a later version of Flash Player, you may be
prevented from reinstalling that same version or an earlier version. For
example, if you installed Flash Player 9,0,47,0 and then removed it, and
attempted to install version 9,0,45,0 the installation would fail.

Solution:

Warning: The following solution 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 arenot
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 information.

To resolve this issue:

Choose Start > Run.

Type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK to start the Windows Registry
Editor.

Navigate to the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayer\SafeVersions

Right-click and delete the folder named Safe Versions.

Reinstall Flash Player any version
