I used to have Adobe Flash Player installed and working fin on IE7 (and I am on a Vista). But a while back something happened and flash went away from IE, but it didn't bother me because I was using chrome which was fine with Adobe Flash Player. Any way after a while I, for some strange reason I "upgraded" to IE8. I managed to get rid of it by uninstalling the so called "upgrade" but it came back after a while and now I'm stuck with it, and cannot get rid of it because it wan't so up. (But I don't care as like I said I don't use it) But now I got a new game (Sims 3) which tadobe flash player activex setupells me i need Adobe Flash Player through the EA Download Manager, and it randomly quits my game to tell me.
So I clicked on the thing to get it, and I took me to IE and so I tyred to install it, but no luck. I get this message every time.
or
"Adobe Flash Player ActiveX Setup
Failed to install.

I went on that trubleshooting tips site and I followed the steps, but still no luck!
What can I do. I would uninstall IE but a lot of things in windows need it, like that game!
Please Help this is frustrating.
download andadobe flash player activex setup install the .msi file for flash rather than using the active x web based install. I think this may work for vista fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplaye… but you may want to run a search on your own for the adobe .msi download
Try this.
Uninstall here:
Now, reinstall here:
This works 90% of the time.
Apparently there is some issue with IE and Adobe Flash right now.
Do you have Active X 9.0 installed?I have vista and not having this problem.It asks if I want X blocked and I tell it yes or No.Tell it to stop blocking in your settings
