Adobe Flash Player in Windows 7 with Internet Explorer 11 is not worki

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
This link pretty much says what the file type is,
MHTML - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Probably the same as doing File/ Send/ Page by page and Link by email
I'm not sure where the site (Webshots) comes into play here ?
I have a feeling you have an account there and that is actually where the video was saved too and not your machine because the file size was only 944 kb and nothing but a screen shot and a hyperlink to Webshots ?

So there's no video to recover unless it's been moved at Webshots ?
Opening the file in flash player does no good it's the first thing I tried

Hi: I think I am free of Spyware as I run - Norton 360- ccleaner- malwarebytes -JRT and AdwCleaner.

Thanks for your help with Adobe Flash Player. Can you help me get Adobe Flash Player so it is shown/available in my Default Programs? It is in my Control Panel/ Programs & Features. But I cannot change a program/file to "OPEN WITH" Adobe Flash Player.

You were right about me being a Member of Webshots! But I am not now as they have changed it so much.

Thanks,

Ardath Morrison

Possibly that's why the file does not work anymore ?
These video downloaders seem to download to their site and you access the files there and they give you a special hyperlink file to view the files which now does not work,

How many others do not work that have the same file type extension as this one ?

My post #9 on page 1 shows you the location of flash player where you have to browse to find after you use open with,
Cheers.

Have you tried using the Adobe Flash Player uninstaller, and then re-installing ?

Adobe Flash Player

Hi: When you told me how to get Adobe Flash Player to appear in my Default Programs:

​

Hi,
C/ Windows/ System32/ Macromed/ Flash,
The file should be the only one with a flash player symbol FlashUtil64_15_0_0_167_ActiveX this seems to be the .exe file
Like I said before on the first screen it should show a box to Uncheck on the bottom left I believe so if it's not the correct or does not work all file type won't be effected by the file type switch until confirmed it works

This shows as "Adobe Flash Player Installer/Uninstaller 15.0r0" . Is this okay to say Installer/Uninstaller?
I was expecting to see JUST INSTALLER.

Thanks,

Ardath Morrison

Hi you made it back
Yea that's the only file that shows up on the list of choices to use when using browse for a program otherwise it should open in a browser and the site it opens to Webshots should play the content ?

Do you have FireFox installed ?

See if any of these videos suffice as a replacement for Webshots.

The Link in the MHTML file seemed to go to the daily webshot - pumpkins today!

Yes I do have Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox as well as Internet Explorer. I was just concerned about the "UNINSTALLER" appearing when I was able to add Adobe Flash Player to my Default Programs.

Thanks, Ardath Morrison

SORRY BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO REPLY TO BOTH OF YOU AS I ONLY SEE ONE PLACE TO REPLY TO ALL THESE MESSAGES. So I have put bothreplies in the same note here. How should I have done this?

Hi,
I wouldn't worry about multi quoting us we can figure out what your saying

Unless your willing to reactivate your account with webshots all I can suggest is to delete it and replace it,
If youtube videos are available for download the creator will include a download link in the More link under their name...
Cheers.

Glad you found a suitable replacement video. Sometimes it's better to find a workaround to an issue (flash player works, yes?, the webpage you saved just couldn't find the video) than to beat your head against a wall.

YouTube provides HTML5 support (Flash not required) on many/most videos.

Just to be sure your computer can play Flash objects - try loading this Adobe webpage to test flash.

Thanks,

But you have uploaded it at least twice so it's still in the posts you uploaded in,

Adobe Flash Player

Hi: I'm still having trouble with Adobe Flash Player!! I am about to Uninstall & reinstall again. After I do this how do I get it to show up/be available in my Default Programs. I think you have already told me how to get this program to be available in Default Programs so when I click "Open With" it will be there. But I cannot find the article in here. Can you help me again with this?

Please Please help me once again!!!

Thanks,

Ardath Morrison

You posted your zip file in #17 - here's a link to it

I read through the thread again and I'm not sure what problem you're trying to solve. There might be two issues

1) the Rainbow falls video wouldn't open - I think the workaround replacement video 'solved' that one

The other issue ... playing local Flash files / default programs

Flash player is perhaps a poor name for the technology. It is not a standalone player, it requires a host application such as a browser. There was, at one time, an Adobe stand alone flash, but that was a long time ago.

I think you might be looking for a stand alone player that you can associate the file type.

From Wiki page: Flash Video - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Desktop-based[edit]

Main article: Comparison of video player software

Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Unix-based

Adobe Media Player (freeware) (no longer published or supported by Adobe)
Media Player Classic (free software)
MPlayer (free software)
RealPlayer (freeware)
VLC media player (free software)
Winamp (freeware)​

I personally use the 64 bit version of VideoLAN - VLC media player - you have to look past the big download boxes on that page to find the 64 bit version. The 32 bit version works well to, I'm just a geek

VLC plays anything I throw at it - you might need QuickTime (QT) installed to play QT movies - I forget.
QT is so big, I uninstalled it years ago and keep it off all my systems - another personal choice (if I can't watch a video because it's in .mov format ... I can live with that )

Startybart reply.

Hi: Thanks for your assistance here! I have Adobe Flash Player up and running once again.

Please post what you did - was it a clean install of Flash per the instructions DavidE pointed to?
Or was there more to resolving the issue?

You mentioned Default Programs and associating Flash to the open with context menu. I'd be interested in what you did for that - I used to build HTML that would open the .swf or .flv file in an in-line player. That wasn't any fun though, so I found a standalone player.

Thanks,
