I had this very problem with Windows 8.1 and IE11. It can not be fixed. Adobe and Microsoft will probably do this soon. This Flash Player is a debug version.

You can uninstall this Window Update and Windows will go back to the July AFP.

Chrome and Firefox updates are not a problem. I just stopped using IE 11. I am using Firefox as my default browser.

My DH just fixed mine (error code 1009 is the only one I had) by un-installing update

KB3087916

After you un-install it, it will keep showing up as an update you need to do, but just ignore it if it has the above #. I put a sticky note on my laptop to remember it.

Hope it works for you too!

I though that Adobe just issued a security patch.

They did, but it doesn't work well with Windows 8 or 8.1. It constantly gives error messages.

Each time you use your computer Windows will look to fix this update you uninstalled. If this update is installed and uninstalled it could damage windows registry. I found a better solution stop using IE 11.

I set my updates to notify me, so none are automatically installed.

It just shows a message in my action center that I need to install that, which I ignore. It's not a pop-up or anything annoying.

Presumably they'll do a fix for Window 8/8.1 users.

BTW, I didn't figure this out, DH is a certified computer tech, thank goodness! Just wanna give credit where credit is due, LOL!

Thanks- will try that- don't know why it's "all of a sudden" but it's quite annoying wondering what to do to get rid of it.
