Objective
Installing Adobe Flash Player on Google Chrome First step is to download the Flash player uninstaller file and uninstall the current flash plugin from your system. Here are the uninstallers for both Windows and Mac OS. Reformat the hard disk using HFS+ formatting, and install only Mac OS and Shockwave Player. Reformat the hard disk using HFS+ formatting, and then install only Mac OS and Shockwave Player from the original installation media. Reformatting a disk erases all files it contains, so be sure to back up all personal files first.
This is particularly useful for debugging recording issues from Adobe Connect perspective specially in few versions prior to 9.6 where recordings only have an option to launch in flash player mode. Could be used for debugging meeting issues as well if accessed in flash player mode.
