    Adobe Flash Player won't Uninstall


    I haven't been able to uninstall and reinstall the adboe flash player, and it seems as if it starts the uninstall and then hangs. The Adobe reader has also been problamatic and it doesnt like automatic uptdates, which I have now disabled. any thoughts? Its running on icore7 920 9GB Ram and windows 7 RC 64 bit. Thanks!

    Hello TheWiz,

    The Adobe Flash Player uninstaller may be able to help you get it uninstalled. I would recommend that you close IE after downloading it before you run it to avoid any possible "In Use" issues while trying to uninstall it.

    Hope this helps,

    Thanks. it had nothing to do with any open programs like IE. It turned out some temporary service to the unbinstaller was running in the background and didn't close properly, hanging the uninstall every time I rebooted. I uninstalled and will reinstall soon.

    P.S. the other error I will move to a new forum, but for any quick errors I keep getting a kernel event tracing error event id 2 in event viewer. Any thoughts?
