1. Component for Internet Explorer (and other browsers that support Internet Explorer ActiveX components and plugins)
2. Component for browsers Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, Opera.
From this it follows that for games through Internet Explorer and the client, you need the first component, the one that is ActiveX. To play through Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, Opera you will need the second component.
Not knowing or not remembering this moment is the source of problems related to the launch of the game. Because Adobe Flash Player installed via Firefox or Opera, will not be distributed on Internet Explorer and the game client. Similarly, Adobe Flash Player installed via Internet Explorer will not be distributed on Firefox, Opera, etc.
I hope that after reading this you already clearly understand what kind of Adobe Flash Player you need in this moment. Next, I will tell you how to install, check the installed version and update Adobe Flash Player.
Checking the version of installed Adobe Flash Player.
To check if you have Adobe Flash Player installed and how up-to-date it is (whether the latest version), just follow this link http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ATTENTION! Once again, I draw your attention to the fact that Adobe Flash Player is different for different browsers. You need to open this link with exactly the browser, the flash version in which you want to check. Those. To check the flash version in FireFox, you need to open this link in Firefox. To check the flash version for Internet Explorer and the client, you need to open this link in Internet Explorer.
And so, we opened the link in the browser we needed. The Version Information box will show the version of the flash you have installed. A little lower there will be a table that lists the current (i.e., the latest at the moment) versions of Adobe Flash Player components for different operating systems and browsers. If the version of your flash matches the version for your browser and OS indicated in the table, then this means that you are happy owner most latest version Adobe Flash Player. If the numbers are different, then you need to update your flash.
Installing and updating Adobe Flash Player.
We will proceed from the fact that you already know which component of Adobe Flash Player you need. If not, then read again from the beginning. If we know what we need, then I can offer two installation options and one option for updating Adobe Flash Player.
The first option is to open the link http://www.adobe.com/go/EN_US-H-GET-FLASH . Again, the link must be opened with the browser for which you need flash. The adobe site will detect (or at least try to) your OS and browser and offer you the component you need and installation instructions.
The second option is to open the link http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ and select the component you need yourself. It doesn't matter what browser you open this link with. Important to do right choice, i.e. choose your OS and browser correctly. Windows users 7 will make it to this page anyway, they should choose Vista as their OS. Selected, download the file, install. For greater importance, you can check what was installed there as described above.
Now for the update. For now universal way update flash is to use one of the two options above. I don’t see any point in deleting an existing flash before installing a new one and never did it. But the choice is yours, if you really want, you can delete it. It won't get any worse. There is also an option to use the update utility located here c:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\. The file is called FlashUtil10c.exe The number and letters may differ depending on the version. If you run this file, it will automatically download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player ActiveX. Attention! This utility updates ONLY ActiveX flush, i.e. the one needed for the client and Internet Explorer.
In order for the browser to work correctly, you need to install a mandatory set of add-ons and follow their updates. This also applies to utilities designed for watching videos, listening to online music and some games. Like any software, the plugin needs to be updated periodically. How to check if this add-on needs to be updated? Let's tell how to check flash player version to decide on an upgrade.

Browsers are frequently updated and the location of any settings change over time.
