    Flash Player is freezing when playing .swf files from hard drive

    I am using the Windows 7 operating system from quite a long time and I have not encountered any issues till now. Now, I have encountered a weird situation in my system. The Flash Player is freezing when playing .swf files from hard drive. I have just downloaded the player a couple of days ago. There was no problem while installing this particular player. Anyone having any idea on how to get rid of this issue is expected to reply immediately.

    Re: Flash Player is freezing when playing .swf files from hard drive

    If the Flash Player is freezing when playing .swf files from hard drive, then there must be various processes that are going on within the system. So, it is required that all the unnecessary processes must be terminated before starting any application or program. I have seen that this particular issue occurs only in the Windows 7 operating system. I guess this is why it is recommended that this operating system must not be installed or upgraded.

    You need to check out whether there is an incompatibility issue between the operating system and the player. This is so because according to me, it seems as if the situation that Flash Player is freezing when playing .swf files from hard drive is being caused because of an incompatibility issue. There is no need to worry. There are many alternatives available in the market. Use any of them that are compatible with Windows 7.

    I have tried searching for the compatibility tool for Flash Player, but could not find the same. Anyways, I used the Run as Administrator option after that. At that time, it was running fine for some time. Then, the problem started again. Now, I set the operating system in the compatibility mode, when this player was running and now, I am not facing any sort of issues.
