Adobe Flash Player

[RoyT]

Hi, I downloaded flash player and cannot get it to work playing videos on the net. One site [Snap Fish] said I am in Metro Mode and I should be in Desktop Mode. How do I do this? I am running Windows 7.
Thanks, RoyT

Are you sure its not windows 8? There is no metro mode in windows 7. Also, if you are using IE 10 then switch to a different browser such as Firefox, Pale Moon or Chrome.

Did you download the correct version of flssh player there is one version for explorer and a different version for other browsers.

Google chrome has flash player built in so it would good to test with.

You have to use the uninstall tool at the link below or you won't be able to reinstall it correctly.

I am also having problems with Flash Player, certain programmes tell me to download it and the Adobe says it downloaded Flash Player successfully but it still will not play.
I an running Win 7 and IE 10.
Are you saying IE10 is not compatible? It worked OK on IE9

FIXED IT. I switched off the Active X filtering in Tools.
