What browser (and version) are you using? If you are using Internet Explorer, upgrade to I.E. 10, if you are not on that version.

Calvin, I was having that same problem only I have Vista OS and IE10.
I installed Flash player a dozen times over a 2 day period to no avail.
I googled the problem I was having and some guy said to be sure and check your Tools Dropdown and make sure that the Active X Filtering is NOT checked....I checked and low and behold mine was checked.
I un-checked it and have had no problem since.
I think my Cat was walking around on the keyboard and did that! LOL!
Hope this might be your problem...an easy fix if it is?

Calvin, just get another browser. Simple.
Forget about other operating systems for the moment.
Good luck!

It doesn't matter if you like them or not, the point is to troubleshoot this problem and find out what's causing it. Is it the browser or the OS or the hardware or something in your user account or what? But it would be hard to like any browser that required the reinstallation of Flash every day.

I recently read that certain registry cleaners have been shown to cause this kind of issue with flash player.
