Why does Flash player crashes?

Hey Matth Santos!

I also had the same problem and I was completely stuck in this problem but then i found myself lucky to overcome this problem.

Actually the reason behind crashing of Adobe Flash Player was the use of extra-large fonts, in my case. I changed my fonts from Extra-large to large and then i noticed that my Adobe Flash Player is not crashing anymore.

So i would suggest you if you are using Extra-large fonts then change them to large.

Right click on Desktop and select properties. Click on Appearance Tab and change the font from extra-large to large in "Font Size" option. Click on ok button and try to upload the picture. This time your Flash Player will not be crashed.

Thanks

Why does Flash player crashes?

I’m quite confused. I can’t find any relevance of the flash player with the uploading of photos to Facebook because the process doesn’t actually use the service of Adobe Flash Player. If this really happens then the problem might be originating from the web browser rather than with Adobe Flash Player.

First thing you can try is upgrade your current version of Adobe Flash Player. Visit Download Adobe Flash Player to download the latest version. If you usually get download problems when doing it from the website, you can download it directly from Macromedia: Adobe Flash Player. This link lets you go directly to the file instead of a downloader.

After this, uninstall Adobe Flash Player from your computer. Click Start, Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs. Select Adobe Flash Player plug-in from the list then click Remove. Don’t get confused with ActiveX if you also have it like me. Remove Adobe Flash Player Plug-in and not Adobe Flash Player ActiveX. See image.

Next, run the newly downloaded Adobe Flash Player installer and then try uploading some pictures again. If still the same, try uninstalling and then installing back your web browser.
