If you want to download the version for IE, use Firefox. Otherwise, the player will be installed automatically. Similarly, if you want to download the version for Firefox, use IE.

After you have downloaded the installation files, you can use the following commands to install them silently.

IE:

install_flash_player_ax.exe /install

FireFox:

install_flash_player.exe /install

  1. Dear Sir,

    Many thanks for your information. I’m searching the silent switch for 2 months.

    Also, the way of downloading the player files does help me solve my problem.

    Thanks you very much.

    B. rgds,

  2. Thanks for your help for identifying the correct syntax.

    I’m boggled why Adobe chose to change a very stable and sensible command that exists in many software installer syntax into one that stands outside the sensible spectrum. The installer software is downloaded/distributed with intention of installing. There should be no need to specify “install” since that is the ultimate goal anyway! Retards on parade and still getting paid!
