Default Adobe Flash is the worst POS software I have ever dealt with. **** this. (Help me)

Ok, so apart from Google Chrome being completely useless over the pass couple of months with all of its problems, now flash has decided to stop working. I googled it and found that Chrome has its own flash, so I had to disable it to play youtube videos (apparently the chrome flash and the normal flash don't like each other all of a sudden, so they just crash each other). Fair enough, I was able to disable the chrome flash and it worked. I get on tonight and now it won't play any videos so I go back to the plug in screen and the normal flash isn't there anymore and I just have the chrome flash and it won't load anything.

I have tried about 40 times, no BS, to try and uninstall flash or install the new version and it just won't work. I click the "Run" button and it doesn't do anything. I re-download it and try to uninstall/install, click "Run" and it doesn't do anything.

I was able to un-install it through Windows, but now I can't install it so now none of my browsers have flash. I re-started my computer and I still can't get it install.

Any suggestions?

Seriously, I fataing hate flash. It never works. I'm going to try and do this in Safe Mode to see if that works.

Remove Flash. Remove Chrome. Reinstall Chrome.

Maybe you should save all your porn on a hard drive since flash wont co-operate

Problem solved

Yeah. You definitely want to be using Chrome's integrated Flash plugin, and only that, especially now that they have it properly sandboxed in their new plugin format.

The only way to take flash off and put it back on was through Safe-Mode. I have the Chrome flash plug-in disabled right now and everything is fine for now.

I've tried re-installing Chrome before when I had problems with it and it didn't fix it, I still have those problems.
