    flash player: an update for adobe pops up every couple days


    an update for adobe pops up every couple days
    I did not click on anything to make it pop up
    avg blocks it and removes it
    I run avg, Malwarebytes, Microsoft malicious, ccleaner
    They never find what makes it come up
    I do not seem to be on any one page when it happens
    It happens on edge, not sure if it does it with firefox and chrome, I will try and check
    Something must be on computer that triggers it but I cannot find it

    :)

    Youtube wont load in IE or EDGE but does in Chrome and Firefox

    No not behind a proxy

    and windows 10 is up to date FYI Flash Player is integrated into EDGE and IE

    Adobe Flash Player issues with Windows 10 (Microsoft Edge)

    "Flash Player is integrated with Microsoft Edge in Windows 10.

    You do not need to install Flash Player. "

    flash player is up to date on this machine and that flash article was from last year Jan 2016 not Jan 2017

    FYI. If you are guessing at flash player in Edge then you need to send End Users to advanced settings and make sure Adobe Flash Player is enabled.

    It's likely a malware or PUP pop up ad. Could open on any link. Do NOT follow the screen directions and CLOSE the window (use Task Manager, if need be). Windows 10 will update Flash Player for Edge via Update. There is nothing for you to do regarding Flash Player.

    Here's a link to Adobe's Flash Player check to see if you have latest version for your browser. Use it to verify if a popup window is valid or not.

    I agree with MrGeek.

    What AntiVirus software do you have installed? You might want to run a full scan. Remove the version of flash you have and install it from the official website.

    Do you have Flash Player installed? If you do is it set to auto check for updates? You can access Flash Player in control panel.

    Tottaly delete FlashPlayer, and when you will start it again monitor your Antivirus.
