Hi, I have read several similar questions but they do not fit my situation.  I have Window 7 Ultra, Home and Office 10, and IE 11.  Several times I need to read something, I am warned to download Adobe Flash Player 11; when I try, I always get the following pop up: "Close keyboard and Internet Explorer."   The first question is how do I close these two programs and get them back as soon as download is  completed?  I need step by step.  Second, if IE is closed how is Adobe FP download transmitted.  Thanks and Semper  Fi Ben

    You can download the flash installer here -

    Then close Internet Explorer and run the downloaded installer.

    Hi, I agree and actually, I never intended to start something new as I have more wood cut down than I can haul at the moment; I was  just commenting on why I was delaying working on Flash 11, but thanks for the reminder.  Semper Fi Ben

    You can't 'close a keyboard.'  What is the actual message?

    As far as my advice, it was download the installer, close Internet Explorer, and run the downloaded installer. I don't know any way to make that simpler or more clear?  What don't you understand?
