Flash Player plug-in problems with IE7

If you're seeing the "Please get the latest version of Flash Player" directive when you try to view videos in Youtube or any other page, and you're sure you've installed the Flash Player, then just do this:
 
Go to
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil9b.exe
and run it. That should fix it.

    Good post!!!  I had problems myself with Adobe flashplayer within Vista.  I would download the software and I would instantly get a response that it was installed.  I knew this was NOT the case as I would periodically get prompted to download Adobe Flash Player at adobe.com.
    Even ensuring I was running the install as administrator on Vista did not help.  Anyhow, hopefully others will benefit from your post.  I know I can't be the only one who experienced problems with it :smileywink:

    I had the same problem. But I found a solution. Manually open the upgrade assistant DVD look under APPS folder and there is a flash program there. Manually install it by clicking it. That should solve the problem.

    This maybe a dumb question, but where do you go to run:

     

    C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil9b.exe

     

    Thank you,
