Answer 1

I had this problem with flashplayer for months and it was very frustrating. Found the solution a month back:


For the past 2 day's I have tried just about every solution posted in this forum. I believe I have found a solution that just might work for a large percentage of the viewers. I can't remember whose instructions these were. I copied and pasted and then proceeded as instructed.

Step 1.
Using the SubInAcL tool from Microsoft to fix permission issues in the registry has solved installation errors for several products including Flash Player.
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 are not comfortable editing the registry, then take your system to a professional. If you choose to proceed, then it is essential that you 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.

You must have administrator privileges to successfully complete these instructions.
1. Follow the instructions to download and install the subinacl tool from Microsoft here.
2. Use a text editor to create a file and name it reset.cmd. Save the reset.cmd in C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools folder.
3. Copy and paste the following content into the reset.cmd file. Then save and close the file.

subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f

subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=system=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f
4. Open the command window to run the reset.cmd script. Select Start, Run, and type in "cmd".
5. In the command windows type in "cd C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools" and select Enter.
6. Type in "reset.cmd" and select Enter. This will run the SubInACL tool.
7. After a few minutes processing subinacl, the permissions will be reset.
8. Install the Flash Player from here: http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer...
9. Test the Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome...


Next: STEP 2.
I took GOLLUX's advice and went to Q313222 from Microsoft and followed this instruction:

To reset your operating system back to original installation default security settings: 1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then press ENTER.
2. Type secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb /verbose, and then press ENTER. You receive a "Task is completed" message, and a warning message that something could not be done. You can safely ignore this message. For more information about this message, view the %windir%\Security\Logs\Scesrv.... file.

Thanks Gollux & to whoever posted instructions for the Windows Resource Tool.
Problem solved!
