Tried Doing It This Way Yet?

Click on the link below to access the Flash Player download site:

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

Once there, select your operating system, then select a "Version" for Opera and Chromium, then UNCHECK the "Optional" boxes, then click on the "Download Now" button. Download the 20 MB file to your desktop and once it's there, close your browsers and double click on the file to install it.

Once the installation is finished, open Opera, then the Plugins page and Enable the Flash Player plugin.

Hope this helps.
