Latest Version of Adobe Flash Player

How many times do Adobe want to keep updating this! Seems to be far too regulary. I thought they were supposed to be in sync with patch tuesday also. It's only a couple days behind but it's annoying as I already did the windows updates on tuesday - would of been nice to of got these out the way too and looked forward to 5 weeks 'hopefully' of no more updating to do.

Annoying as it is, frequent updates are far safer than allowing a vulnerable version to continue to run until a scheduled patch date arrives.

I guess your right. It's been a bad week for updates. After installing any update I then have to do some testing on each device/machine.

My wife is losing patience with me!!! On Monday iOS 8.2 hit hard - with 3 ipads and an iphone to then deal with, tuesday all the windows updates and 3 computers at home to do & now the flash update. Admittedly updating flash isn't nearly as stressful as the other two. All I need is apple to throw an iTunes update down the pipe this week for the full set!!!

Look at it this way; all those updates are far less annoying than having to deal with removing malware, regaining stolen identity, etc.

Thank you Jim. Seems to be available on all download pages at Adobe now.

First post updated. :)

New version

Adobe Flash Player 17.0.0.169 is out.

Thank you Mickey. First post updated. :)

I've just downloaded Flash Player 17.0.0.169 (IE).exe and when you run it, it says I need to uninstall the previous version first. Adobe keep changing their mind with flash player sometimes it installs without uninstalling and sometimes it doesn't. The amount of flash player updates which come out every few days to me they don't do a good job the first time.

Its like FireFox their updates with come out virtually daily.

Curious. I've never had to uninstall before updating.
