Re: flash player will not install or work

Hi Clay,

Yes, it's a flash animation. And the problem occurs if the Flash ActiveX control is set Kill-bit, or disabled via Manage Add-ons or via Policies.

Download the utility AddonConfigurator from here:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/addonconfig.htm

Run the utility and then type the following CLSID in the Text box exactly

{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}

Click the "View add-on information" button and post the LOG here.

Re: flash player will not install or work

Hi Clay,

As I see from the file, none of the restrictictions are enabled for Flash ActiveX, and not sure what's causing the problem. Can you tell what happens when you reinstall Flash?

Possible workarounds:

1. Try adding the website to your Trusted Zone _Temporarily_
2. Try this from Start, Run:

regsvr32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\macromed\flash\Flash.ocx

Yes, that unblocks the Class ID totally. I did not advice that before, as I just wanted to know how the CLSID was blocked. Thanks for the feedback!

Same here

Hello,
I have the exact same issue, flash player just won't play anywhere! You name it: IE, Firefox or Safari.
I've tried just about everything!! Cleared cache, reinstalled it, updated video driver, ran addon configurator, added to secure sites even in firewall, is also allowed under add ons, I don't have any regedits, I've followed all steps instructed in this link http://forums.techguy.org/all-other-...k-doing-1.html, I even formatted my pc and was working for the first day, then rebooted and it stopped working, I really don't know what else to do.
Any help would be highly appreciated!
