May Update - Flash Player

Hi,

I've just installed the May updates and the security update fails with the
following message:

Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with
error 0x80070643: Security Update for Flash Player (KB913433).

Can somone tell me what could be causing this?

Many Thanks

Michael

This happens on all three of my machines as well. I tried manually running
the hotfix and it informs me of the following:

"The version of Macromedia Flash you have installed does not match the
update you are trying to install."

If I don't have the correct version of Flash for this update, why is it
trying to force it?

I guess the reason I didn't get that at Windows Update is because I got
the security download from Macromedia two months ago ...

Alias

I had the same error on one XP SP2 machine, but no the other. The one that
errored has Firefox with flash installed in it. Is that potentially causing
the conflict regarding the version? I tried updating flash in IE via Adobe's
website and still get the error.

Just an update - after reinstalling Flash Player from Adobe's website and
running Automatic Updates, it still failed... but now I'm not seeing the
update on Automatic Update or Microsoft Update, and Microsoft Baseline
Security Analyzer (MBSA) 2 is reporting all security updates are installed.
Hmm..

Hi,

I managed to get it sorted by manually updating it.

Internet Explorer --> Internet Options
Settings
View Objects
Right Click the Shockwave Flash Object and choose Update.

This should update it to version 8.0.24.0. I then done a Windows Update and
the Flash Update was no longer showing up.

Hope this helps.

Michael
