I uninstalled FP in order to install the newest version.
The uninstall using add/remove was fine.
Now, I download the installer, locate it on the desktop, right click and "run as administrator", I get the UAC verification which I approve, the installer service then appears in services, the installation package on the desktop disappears (it does not go to recycle bin) and then everything just sits there.
I've verified that I have the current windows installer version and that is is not disabled so it should start. I have this same identical issue with reinstalling Reader.
I uninstalled and installed Java yesterday and it installed, I also downloaded an uninstaller utility which installed and ran. So, I don't believe the issue is with installing, it seems to be specific to Adobe flash and reader.
Please help; both these are required for my wife;s work and needless to say I'm on her list since I can't reinstall. Thanks for any help.
