Does "Flash Player for Internet Explorer" even exist?
I hate Adobe Flash Player, it is always a hassle to install and I have to go thru such rigors to install it, I wish companies would stop using AFP.
Lately I have been getting an error to install "Adobe Flash Player for Internet Explorer"
Note "For Internet Explorer"
Does such a program exist? I thought all flash players were the same, or rather that there was only one flash player and it worked for all systems on a PC.
First, I have flash player installed and I have IE installed, but I don't never use IE.
Second, I am completely unable to find a download for "Flash Player for Internet Explorer", Please note I am not talking about "Flash Player" but "for "Flash Player for Internet Explorer".
I am able to find "Flash Player" at adobe but not "for Internet Explorer". I don't know why it has to be so danged difficult.
Any ideas on how to download and install this idiotic program?

First thing to do is download the Flash Player uninstaller...it's in paragraph 1. in the link below. Save it (Save as) to your desktop using IE. If you use Firefox, cut and paste from downloads folder to desktop.
To update IE's Flash Player, you need to use it to download the Flash Player. If you go to Filehippo.com, select which version you need, 32 or 64 bit (not the beta), and after hitting the download button, you'll be redirected to Adobe.com. There your PC will be scanned to ensure the right version. Download the installer to your desktop (Save As), close the browser.
Do the exact same thing using Firefox. If you download the installer (again, not the beta) in the downloads folder, cut and paste it to your desktop. Close the browser.
First run the uninstaller, reboot, then run both installers (IE, Firefox). Both times you will be directed to Adobe.com for confirmation of Flash install.
For Chrome just open the browser, go to menu, then About Chrome, it will update automatically if needed.

Every browser uses a different versions of Flash Player. Go to: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ select your OS (Step 1:)and then Select the appropriate version for you browser (Step 2). Do this inside Internet Explorer (last Version 11).
I don´t use IE either but sometimes, there are some programs, paid my MS of course, which oblige you to install this "idiotic program". So, nothing to do about it.

Go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ But do it using IE ONLY.

Uncheck the Chrome browser / toolbar thing. Download and install per instructions.
I find the install pretty straightforward. No harder than any other online update. Not sure what problems you have.

I think you should to try to use chrome browser or firefox. because chrome has by default adobe flash player.
