Here I am again requesting your wonderful help.

I was using IE as my browser on my 32 bit, Vista Computer. Now, I have been using Firefox, who requests that I upload my Adobe Flash Player, from 10.3 to 11.2, however, when I tried to download it, it specifies that I must uninstall the Flash Player Manager Settings, first, because I must give permission to certain global outfits.

I went to search for all these in my control panel, and because my computer dates back to 2007, all these settings are together, and cannot delete one at a time, but all will be deleted at the same time.

Since I am not a computer connoisseur, this is what I came across, but it is too much for me to handle. What would you do? Here is the link for the Flash Player Manager Settings. Thank you,

Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager

Consider downloading ccleaner. Sometimes it presents a better interface to remove programs.

I used CCcleaner last month. Every time that I use Firefox, I get "Install Missing PLugins," and the directs me to Adobe Flash.

If I disable the present Adobe Flash 10.3, that I have, and download Adobe's 11.2, do you think that will solve my problem? Thank you,

Can you uninstall adobe flash 10.3 first then install the 11.2?

Yes, I can do that, but would that be the correct way to go?

It isn't risky. What's the worst that can happen?

This seems like a very simple problem unless I am really missing something or misread the original post.

Well, finally I was able to download Adobe Flasher 11.0, without having to disable my security system. Apparently, Firefox is not recognizing it, because it continues to tell me that I need plug-ins in order to display more media in the page, and then directs me to download Adobe Flasher 7.0.

What should I do? Thank you,
