Windows 7: Flash Player 10.2 for 64-Bit browsers

Scratchy · 29 Jan 2011

Flash Player 10.2 should work with 64-Bit browsers. But it don't seems to work for me.

Anyone succeed?

You need the 64-bit version of Flash called Square:
Adobe Labs - Adobe Flash Player "Square"

That seems to be the latest beta but not for the 64bit since only 32bit links are present for IE and other browsers as well as for Linux and Mac. There's nothing on that specifying the 64bit.

When running a search for 64bit flash players the only notation comes up.

Note the version of IE is still the default 32bit IE 8 not the 64bit version of IE in the 64bit Windows 7 this works with.

Yeah, only the "Square" version works with 64 bit browsers as stated above. Currently at Preview 3 version.

I saw the notice on the preview. I think most of us are still waiting to see a working 64bit player to run the 64bit IE. That will still be some time to see however.

Thanks!

Then maybe I wait.

If looking at this page with IE64 it says that the beta version has full 64bit browsers support on win, mac and linux: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and the link: Adobe Labs - Downloads: Adobe Flash Player 10.2 Beta
Adobe seems to be liars or just wrong link?

IE64 seems faster for me then IE32 but my standard browser is FF32. One thing I like with IE is that I can choose another cache harddrive. With FF I have to use my Primary Drive "C" for cache

The "Square" Preview mentioned by Airbot, kellymac35 and LittleMutt works fine for me on 64 bit IE9 (random YouTube clip shown below for demonstration purposes only):

Hi, Scratchy!

Did you click the link in the first link you presented?

If you did, you would have seen this:

If you run a search for the 64bit flash player that page regarding the attempt to install the 32bit flash player while using a 64bit browser will be seen as one of the results. You can look all that over at Flash Player on 64-bit operating systems
