It may be as simple as the latest version of Flash Player being incompatible with your operating system and or hardware.

It is also possible you have downloaded an infection. Run a root-kit and virus scanner. Flash has some problems with virus', as such a lot of places have switched to HTML5.

Close the browser first! There also browser plugins you could try (via browser addon tab).

I only ever go to adobe's website and download the latest version, install it and then close the browser.

I wouldn't download it from anywhere else, you don't know what you're really getting.

Even if you get it from the right source

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

In my experience the download can abort quite a few times before it takes
as to why is anyones guess - some malware tries to stop it being updated
given its a well known and exploited piece of software

There are plenty of sites set-up with one purpose in mind - to infect your PC
They typically will tell you your flash is out of date even if its not

Remember to untick their free optional offer - currently true key

last time it became vulnerable 13th December 2016

As some browsers like firefox dont update their plugins automatically maybe worth using the
software below - i use it at start-up so i'm not surfing around with vulnerable browser plugins phishing for malware

The alternative to manually upgrading would be to use PSI

Personal software checker - set to download automatically or alert you

Google Chrome isn't updating flash if your running Win7 or any older OS.

As I still use Win7 on my home pc, I just swap to Firefox if I need to visit any site with flash in use, just because it's simpler.
