    I have referred your solution and I would like to first tell you many times by reinstalling the flash player in the system this type of problem can get solved. In your case I am not sure because you have said that you are not facing any problem while opening any website. But you should try this idea may be you r problem will get solved after reinstalling the flash player.

    There is nothing to do with the flash player. Instead of doing anything with the flash player you should try to solve this problem by checking the extensions in your browser. Many times because of the extension also this type of problem can take place. If you have recently installed any extension in your browser and after that if you are facing the same problem the I think that extension requires additional plug-in but because of any reason your system is not able to install that plug-in and if you want to solve this problem then you have to uninstall that extension from the Google chrome and after uninstalling the extension your problem will get solved.

    • First you have to open the Google chrome and after that you have to click on the wrench icon.
    • After that you have to click on the tools option.
    • After clicking on the tools option you have to select the extension.

    If uninstalling the Extension from the Google chrome browser does not help you to solve this problem then you should reinstall the Google chrome browser in your computer and after reinstalling the Google chrome in your computer you have to check whether your problem get solved or not. I think after reinstalling the Google chrome will fix this type of issue.
