Windows 7: Adobe 64-bit Flash Player

Tatletz · 18 Apr 2011

Hi guys,
As we now have IE9 in use, has anyone tried the 64-bit browser with the preview release of Adobe Flash Player "Square" (codename) which enables 64-bit support.
Thanks for your comments!

Been using it since it came out in the 64 bit version of Firefox (was called Minefield and now called Nightly). Also used it in the 64 bit versions of IE8 and IE9.

Also don't forget to install the 64 bit version of Java,

for those sites that need it.

Me too. No issues with Nightly or IE9 using Square.

What browser are you using it on. They have a 64 bit version specific for Explorer and another version for all other browsers.

Well, I've been using IE9 64-bit for some days with Flash Player "Square" and Java 64-bit and still flash content is not displayed

Don't know how to fix your problem but I wanted to make you aware that IE9-64bit is actually slower then IE9-32bit. Microsoft put their effort into the 32bit version and the 64bit version did not get an updated engine. I am sure you want it to work properly but not really anything to gain. Someday we may see a well supported 64bit browser but for now they are just a toy.

Thanks Jim, I switched back to the 32-bit IE9 and all is good now.
Only curiosity made me try the 64-bit browser but as you said they(Microsoft) must still work on it.
