I tried opening with IE11 Metro (rather than Desktop), but it was also unable to detect Flash. It said "DllRegisterServer in c:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\flash.ocx succeeded", but Flash is still undetected in my browser. I tried running "regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\flash.ocx" in an Administrator Command Prompt. I tried searching "This PC" for "FlashUtil64_18_0_0_209_Plugin.exe" and "Plugin.exe", but neither were found. I also tried searching just "Plugin.exe", but nothing was found. I tried searching my registry for "FlashUtil64_18_0_0_209_Plugin.exe" (as key, value, or data), but it wasn't found. I made sure that hidden items are displayed. According to what I've read online, I'd expect to see FlashUtil64_18_0_0_209_Plugin.exe, but I don't see it. My C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash has activex.vch, Flash.ocx, Flash64_18_0_0_209.ocx, FlashInstall.log, FlashUtil_ActiveX.dll, FlashUtil_ActiveX.exe, and FlashUtil64_18_0_0_209_ActiveX.exe. I went through my update history for other instances of Flash player and then searching for those KBs in the list of installed updates, but only the latest one was installed, so I assume that uninstalling the latest one is enough to completely remove it. I tried uninstalling the Flash Player Windows update (currently KB3079777), restarting, checking for updates, and restarting, but that didn't help. I exported my IE11 settings, turned the Internet Explorer 11 Windows feature off, restarted, turned the Internet Explorer 11 Windows feature on, restarted, and Flash was still undetected. I checked for Windows Updates, but I'm up-to-date (all optional and important updates have been installed).Įnhanced Protected Mode is disabled (it's unticked).Īll my zone settings are already set to the default levels. Windows Update will inform you when new versions of the Flash Player are available." The Adobe Flash Player 18.0 Installer proceeds, but then says "The installation encountered errors: Your Microsoft Internet Explorer browser includes the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player built-in. If I go to a Web site that uses Flash, I see a prompt that says "This website wants to install the following add-on: 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Adobe System Incorporated'." I click "Install". I also tried ticking "ActiveX Filtering", but that didn't help, so I unticked again. I went to Tools -> Safety and made sure that "ActiveX Filtering" is unticked and that the URL bar doesn't show a blue No Sign. I went to Tools -> Manage add-ons and saw that Shockwave Flash Object is enabled.
You do not need to install Flash Player."
If I go to and click "Check Now", it says "Sorry, Flash Player is either not installed or not enabled." If I try to follow the Adobe Flash Player download link, it redirects me to, which says "Flash Player is integrated with Internet Explorer in Windows 8. I am unable to run Flash on any Web site.
