Flash wants more space to install

Post by k5cad »

When I try to install Flash I get an error message: "You don't have sufficient disk space to complete this installation." What disk space? I have 3 Gig left in the drive that holds Windows and my applications. I have gone there and find Macromed and Flash subdirectories but no files have been loaded. I have been working on this since installing SeaMonkey more than a month. Have not found anything that matches it in the archives. Can anyone help?

What OS? What version of SeaMonkey? What version of Flash?

What is the Flash install file that you are using (install_flash_player.exe)? What size is the download - it may be corrupted? What is its' md5 checksum value (63b293395734fd9bdfbf2ebb655609ec).

PS: You're not alone, C: Explorer Hatalari, Onarmalari, Tool bar, Yeniden yukleme... Baska topic acilmasin. Though my (fill in the space) language is lacking, I believe in that case, they're speaking of an IE version.

I am running Win XP
SeaMonkey ver 1.1.1
Same results on both ver 8 and ver 9 of Flash
Adobe Flash Player plug in installer
1.1 mb download.
Several different downloads. Same results.
I do not know the md5 checksum value nor what to look for to find it.
Windows is installed on my Local Disk I. Adobe finds Windows/system32 and I assume installs macromed/flash subdirectories then balks.

new data

have downloaded Adobe Flash uninstaller and followed instructions for uninstalling. The new version still will not install. There is an Adobe install log file. How could I make that information available to you? I am naive about the data in that file.

Not trying to bump up my problem - just add more data that might be helpful to troubleshooting it. I found and downloaded ver 7 which works. But when I try to install ver 9.0.45.0 which is recommended for compatibility with SeaMonkey, I am back to the same old Error message. Does this give anyone any clues?
Thank you.

Are you running as a "Limited" user in XP?
Might be that the install requires you to run as Administrator?
