My friends computer has vista as does mine but all of a sudden her adobe flash player wont work. JAva wasnt there anymore either. I did a system restore and got the java problem corrected but videos still wont play and the error says to download the newest version of adobe flash player. I do that and the computer shows its installed but it still wont play the videos. Ive deleted the temporary internet files and done everything the adobe website says to do to troubleshoot the problem. My computer is the same as hers and has never had this issues. Any suggestions?

Well, what did you do (step by step) to solve that issue?

First I went through the adobe support (on the website) and followed the touble shooting options. There is one step in particular that talks about permissions and there is a program you have to install and extract but the directions are explicit enough that I shouldnt have to explain them here. I then tried to watch the video again and I got the same error. However a window popped up at the bottom of the screen that hadnt popped up before. IT said an add-on had been blocked. I went to internet explorer, opened the tools tab and clicked on manage add-ons. Sure enough adobe flash player had been blocked. I selected it and clicked on enable. IT fixed it. I dont know if you have to go through all the adobe trouble shooting first or if you can just go to manage add ons to fix it. Id try the latter first.
