Registering flash control

[whoopy_whale]

I was able to open powerpoint files with flash embedded in it without a problem all these days.

But from today it says that the control is not registered in my system.
How can I manually register it? I don't have administrative rights,so I can't install it from adobe.com

But flash files works in Firefox...

Any suggestions?

Give following command in RUN dialog box:

regsvr32 %windir%\System32\Macromed\Flash\flash.ocx

If it gives error, then open %windir%\System32\Macromed\Flash\ folder and check the filename (it may be flash8.ocx or something like that) and put it in the above mentioned command.

I tried it but I got this error...



The file name is flash.ocx itself...

^^ Is there any other file with the name "flash8.ocx" or "flash9b.ocx", etc. If yes then use the same command for that file, otherwise install the latest flash version.

Thanx for the help,Vishal....

There is a file Flash8.ocx in this folder...I tried to run the command and got the same error but with a different return code.



I can't install the latest version 'coz I don't have admin rights.
