Let's start by modifying the Firefox configuration.
#Shockwave player not working in firefox update
They belong to different companies and are constantly upgrading, which is prone to compatibility problems.Īdobe flash player keeps crashing in Firefox in four ways: disable flash player plugin to prevent crash, disable Firefox protection, disable flash player hardware acceleration, and update the latest version of flash player. Why does this happen? Firefox is generally not compatible with flash player. Sometimes I use Firefox to open a webpage with flash animations or videos, often prompting "Adobe flash player plugin has crashed", animations or videos cannot be played, closing Firefox and opening it is still the same. I hope this will help anyone who has this problem. Nothing !!! When I asked I was told " no such thing " I surfed around for a while and found them. When I read on some thread on MalwareBytes forum about the stand alone uninstallers and installers, naturally I went to Adobe and signed in and proceeded to look for them. Adobe will swear that they can't help, I know from personal experience as I'm a member at Adobe. PS- I searched about 50 sites for this solution, and found that this is a common problem. You and the others who give of their time make this forum a great resource, and a pleasure and privilege to be a member.
I had previously tried several times to uninstall them through add and remove programs, and reinstall them through the Adobe website, this fixed nothing !!!!!
then you are done !!!! Now when you play a video or clip on any site with IE, Firefox, Chrome, or Opera, it plays immediately with no buffering pauses, freezes, or crashes.

I then locked down my firewall, then ran the uninstaller, then opened windows add or remove programs, removed both adobe flash ( it will tell you the programs are not found, and ask if you want to remove them from the list, select yes ) then you use the stand alone installers. If that helps, close all other browsers and do the same thing with a single Chrome tab open.įixed !!!!! I had to get the stand alone adobe flash uninstaller, the stand alone installers for IE and for Firefox. You may want to turn off your popup blocker before you do this-don't forget to turn it back on when your installation completes.įollow the prompts, shut the browser when the installtion completes and restart your computer.

Go here to install the latest Flash Player from Adobe-make sure to UNCHECK any toolbars they're offering this week. Now.Open one browser only-I'd start with IE. When the System Configuration Utility dialogue box opens on restart, read the text if you wish, then check the box at lower left and click OK. On the Startup Tab, once again make a note of all startup items that are checked (or unchecked if that's easier).Ĭlick APPLY, click CLOSE or OK, and Restart when prompted. Make note of all services that are checked (or all that are unchecked if that's a shorter list)-you'll want to reenable these later.Īfter checking the box to HIDE ALL MICROSOFT SERVICES and making your list, click DISABLE ALL. On the Services Tab, put a check in the box to HIDE ALL MICROSOFT SERVICES>this is very important-do not proceed until you've checked the box to HIDE ALL MICROSOFT SERVICES. On the General Tab, put the dot in Selective Startup. Try this:Ĭlick START, click RUN, type MSCONFIG and click OK. I think your chance at success here will be enhanced by updating Flash from a clean boot. You got a lotta stuff running there, but if Flash is crashing in more than one browser, it's likely to be a bad Flash plugin.
