I even download known viruses to see what they do and how fast, before reinstalling the OS again.Īmong all that, I've tried numerous ways to alter or otherwise amend the Flash Player for IE 10, and I haven't been successful at modifyig, updating or replacing it in IE (even with the beta), because I always run into Windows errors or warnings that it 'can only be done throug Windows Update'. I write and rewrite registry 'tweaks', install software, update it, and try to 'break it', then uninstall and reisntall it. I use ther laptop for work so I can 'abuse' the hellout of the desktop, because that's what I have it for.

I have two Win 8 machines - my laptop and a desktop.

It's a good thing I have other systems or I never would have found the Toshiba instructions to reload 8, since the laptop didn't come with an OS or recovery DVD. Anything with jquery, javascript or Flash content would freeze up and I'd have to kill the precess in the Task Manager. Not to mention that NOTHING but IE and Windows would run and IE only worked on plain HTML pages.

I was literally shut out of the software I use and NEED to design websites. which included:Īdobe Creative Suite 6 Master Collection (18 apps) I too, ran 8 without any issues, for a couple months before my daughter was conned into putting the 8.1 'preview' on my new laptop, which renderred everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING, I had installed, 'incompatible'. It has been a month now since a minor update to the Window 8 platform. I get a warning saying that IE will update on its own (I guess in release mode only) and a Quit button.Īt this point, when I go to the test page with IE I get a grey box.Run flashplayer_11_ax_debug.exe as administrator.Using the current uninstaller from (yes, I know this is for pre Windows 8 but remember the Page not found), after shutting down all IE, it runs to completion without errors.'To uninstall Flash Player debugger on Windows 8, please go here' to which results into Page Not Found!. Seems like Windows 8.1 support is still a mess.įirst - On page, at the bottom, there is a link
