Installing Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX Control

Posted by: Joe Devietti on: March 12, 2009

Here’s how I got the Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX Control to install under Windows Vista, so I could embed Flash movies in Powerpoint.

Go to the Flash Player download site. Download the “Adobe Flash Player 10 Update for Flash CS4 Professional” zipfile – 44MB.
Unzip the archive somewhere, and go to the Players/Release/ directory.
You’ll find an executable named Install Flash Player 10 ActiveX.exe, which will do just what the name says!

This is kind of convoluted; maybe people have found easier ways?
