After installing "Square" and going to Find Flash Player version

Mine shows this:

Are you running a 64bit browser when you checked the version? If so, you should get:
Attachment 98222

I just pulled up 32 bit IE9 and got:

You have to be on a 64 bit browser to use the 64 bit Flash - makes sense, eh?

I can run a 64bit browser and a 32 bit browser side by side and each will indicate the proper Flash version of either 10.1... (32 bit) or 10.2... (64 bit).

Shows the 10.1 and I'm running IE9 beta x64. Not sure why it doesn't us the new Flash?

Adobe - Flash Player

I have Win 7x64, IE9x64 and this site shows I have:

You have version 10,2,161,22 installed

ETA - Tools - Manage Add Ons - shows newer version too.

Same here - life is good in the land of browsers.

...ok ------ I did a system restore to before installing IE9. Re-installed IE9. Now it states I have the 64bit Flash. *scratches head*. And I didn't try to install flash64.

...Edit: forget it --- it's still the old version of flash, I miss read something.

Can you use flash in the 64 bit browser?

If you can it must be using the new one.

what does it say in programs and features?

Cr*p....Now I have to find a different software company to complain about. Its' still a little unstable with Minefield x64 but works mostly. Glad to see it after 3 years. I have to give Adobe credit for their ability to keep things under wraps, didn't see this coming and had just posting an Adobe flame the other day about this lack.

Attaboy Adobe, you done goooooooood.
