Question

Chrome Flash Player - how to replace it

Oct 16, 2013 5:34AM PDT

Chrome has Flash Player embedded. However, it has become corrupt. I can no longer play games on the AARP site. How can I delete my Flash Player and download a clean version?

Thanks

Change your browser to something else.
Firefox or Safari spring to mind.

It is never a good idea to include your email address in a public forum

I will ask for it to be removed

Flash players can be replaced or re-installed by going to Abode support website. Knowing your current version may help from Chrome, but that's done normally automatically. Otherwise, retrieve the latest "installable Flash player" as d/l'ed file, run it and will then override current player version or NOT. If not, then you have gotten an old version to install get the latest for your OS and in either 32-or-64bit if required and redo the install. Its important to get the full install not a path to upgrade, sometimes that gets confusing. Just pick the install version that matches your requirements and d/l..
