==Adobe Flash Player 16==
 +
 
 +
Package written to keep in-line with previously documented working solutions which should give you the ability to just download the latest and update version number to make the jump to future versions.
 +
 
 +
The files you download from Adobe are not named the way this package requires. You must rename the NPAPI plugin from <code>install_flash_player.exe</code> to <code>install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_npapi.exe</code> and the ActiveX plugin from <code>install_flash_player_ax.exe</code> to <code>install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_active_x.exe</code>, e.g. <code>install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_npapi.exe</code> and <code>install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_active_x.exe</code>.
 +
 
 +
The uninstall check for the NPAPI plugin changed slightly for version 16, but it's otherwise the same as 15.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
==== Package for WPKG 1.2.1 or higher ====
 +
 
 +
Version 14.0.0.176 of the Flash Player was only released for NPAPI and version 14.0.0.179 was only released for ActiveX, so this package supports checking  different versions of each plugin. As of 16.0.0.235 no further mismatched-version releases have been made.

== Using Microsoft EMET ==
 +
 
 +
If you use [[Microsoft EMET]] http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29851 as additional layer of protection, '''you need to protect Internet Explorer and Firefox in order to protect the Flash plugin. It is neither necessary nor sufficient to add EMET rules to protect executables in %systemroot%\system32\macromed\Flash because [http://www.rationallyparanoid.com/articles/microsoft-emet-2.html the only executables in that directory are uninstallers].''' The Flash plugin runs as part of the Firefox plugin-container or the Internet Explorer process.
 +
 
 +
If you want to protect those files anyway, it's bit of a hassle to add new player versions to EMET configuration because EMET does not accept wildcards in executable filenames. Automate the process with this script:
 +
<source lang="dos">
 +
rem %PKG_SOURCE%\emet.cmd
 +
 
 +
if exist "%programfiles%\EMET\emet_conf.exe" (
 +
@FOR /F %%G IN ('"dir /b %systemroot%\system32\macromed\Flash\*.exe 2> nul"') DO "%programfiles%\emet\emet_conf.exe" --set \windows\system32\macromed\Flash\%%G 2> nul
 +
@FOR /F %%G IN ('"dir /b %systemroot%\SysWOW64\macromed\Flash\*.exe 2> nul"') DO "%programfiles%\emet\emet_conf.exe" --set \windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\"%%G 2> nul
 +
)
 +
</source>
 +
and append line
 +
<source lang="xml">
 +
<install cmd='cmd /c "%PKG_SOURCE%\emet.cmd" &gt;nul ' />
 +
</source>
 +
to your flash install script.
 +
 
 +
== Disable Automatic Update dialog in Adobe Flash Player ==
 +
 
 +
===When Using MSI and EXE Installers===
 +
 
 +
Flash Player automatically checks with adobe.com to see if an updated version is available and if there is it presents a dialog prompting the user to upgrade. To disable this update check and prompting you can do the following:
 +
 
 +
* if it doesn't already exist, create a directory %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\ (%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash for 64-bit system)
 +
* if it doesn't already exist, create a file there called "[http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/167/16701594.html mms.cfg]" (this file can also be used to deploy other settings)
 +
* add an entry in this file: AutoUpdateDisable=1
 +
 
 +
This configuration can be performed by WPKG using the following:
 +
 
 +
<source lang="xml">
 +
<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\' >
 +
<exit code="any"/>
 +
</install>
 +
<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\' >
 +
<exit code="any"/>
 +
</install>
 +
 
 +
<upgrade cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\' >
 +
<exit code="any"/>
 +
</upgrade>
 +
<upgrade cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\' >
 +
<exit code="any"/>
 +
</upgrade>
 +
 
 +
<remove cmd='%COMSPEC% /c del /s /q "%WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg"' >
 +
  <exit code="0" />
 +
  <exit code="1" />  <!-- if file does not exist -->
 +
</remove>
 +
<remove cmd='%COMSPEC% /c del /s /q "%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg"' >
 +
  <exit code="0" />
 +
  <exit code="1" />  <!-- if file does not exist -->
 +
</remove>
 +
</source>
 +
 
 +
Either you can deploy this using WPKG as part of the Flash Player installer (Section 1.1 or 1.2), or create a separate package for this setting which would allow you to deploy updates to this file separately to the Flash Player itself.
 +
 
 +
This file will prevent current and older versions of Flash from auto-updating.
 +
 
 +
===When using EXE Installers===
 +
You can use the "-au 2" installation option to disable automatic updates when using the EXE-based installer, but not the MSI-based installer. mms.cfg will be created for you in the normal location.
 +
 
 +

===Adobe Flash Player 11.2 through 15===
 +
 
 +
Package written to keep in-line with previously documented working solutions which should give you the ability to just download the latest and update version number to make the jump to future versions.
 +
 
 +
The files you download from Adobe are not named the way this package requires. You must rename the NPAPI plugin from <code>install_flash_player.exe</code> to <code>install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_plugin.exe</code> and the ActiveX plugin from <code>install_flash_player_ax.exe</code> to <code>install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_active_x.exe</code>, e.g. <code>install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_plugin.exe</code> and <code>install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_active_x.exe</code>.
 +
 
 +
Flash Player 12 onwards features "Universal 32-bit and 64-bit installers for Mac and Windows browsers".
 +
 
 +
==== Package for WPKG 1.2.1 or higher ====
 +
 
 +
Version 14.0.0.176 of the Flash Player was only released for NPAPI and version 14.0.0.179 was only released for ActiveX, so this package supports checking  different versions of each plugin. As of 16.0.0.235 no further mismatched-version releases have been made.

Here's the silent installers for the Adobe Flash Player 9 for IE and Firefox. Uninstalling the Firefox plugin is missing, since Adobe's uninstall_flash_player.exe removes both plugins, which is not our goal here. If you want to install a newer version (this is for 9.0.16.0), don't forget to change the value in the 'check type' tag. For downloading the .msi version (for the IE ActiveX control), Adobe has an easy registration procedure, but if you smart enough, you can find out how to download without registration :)

=== Adobe Flash Player 10 ===
 +
 
 +
Flash Player 10 is still supported with security updates, the most recent being 10.3.183.11.
 +
 
 +
The latest version of the 10.x series is no longer available from http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html, that version is 10.3.183.11. To get 10.3.183.11 you have to either go to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and unzip fp_10.3.183.11_archive.zip to get flashplayer10_3r183_11_win.exe, which you can install in the usual way, or manually upgrade from within the program.

Installer packaged as an executable, installs as a plugin. Sometimes it is upgraded only on the second run of WPKG, it must be a timing issue between installing over previous version and checking conditions.

If you use WPKG whilst logged in then it's good to kill the Firefox application process before installing Flash Player, since the installer won't work with the browser running. To do this add this to the WPKG code:
 +
<source lang="xml">
 +
<install cmd="taskkill /F /IM Firefox.exe">
 +
            <exit code="0" />
 +
            <exit code="128" />
 +
</install>
 +
</source>
 +
And of course:
 +
<source lang="xml">
 +
<upgrade cmd="taskkill /F /IM Firefox.exe">
 +
            <exit code="0" />
 +
            <exit code="128" />
 +
</upgrade>
 +
</source>
 +
 
 +
=== Adobe Flash Player 9.0.246.0 for Internet Explorer ===
 +
 
 +
Presumably the Internet Explorer version has the same installation/removal/upgrade syntax as the plugin version above, but the following code has not been tested.

Adobe Flash Player 16

Package written to keep in-line with previously documented working solutions which should give you the ability to just download the latest and update version number to make the jump to future versions.

The files you download from Adobe are not named the way this package requires. You must rename the NPAPI plugin from install_flash_player.exe to install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_npapi.exe and the ActiveX plugin from install_flash_player_ax.exe to install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_active_x.exe, e.g. install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_npapi.exe and install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_active_x.exe.

The uninstall check for the NPAPI plugin changed slightly for version 16, but it's otherwise the same as 15.


Package for WPKG 1.2.1 or higher

Version 14.0.0.176 of the Flash Player was only released for NPAPI and version 14.0.0.179 was only released for ActiveX, so this package supports checking different versions of each plugin. As of 16.0.0.235 no further mismatched-version releases have been made.

Using Microsoft EMET

If you use Microsoft EMET http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29851 as additional layer of protection, you need to protect Internet Explorer and Firefox in order to protect the Flash plugin. It is neither necessary nor sufficient to add EMET rules to protect executables in %systemroot%\system32\macromed\Flash because the only executables in that directory are uninstallers. The Flash plugin runs as part of the Firefox plugin-container or the Internet Explorer process.

If you want to protect those files anyway, it's bit of a hassle to add new player versions to EMET configuration because EMET does not accept wildcards in executable filenames. Automate the process with this script: 

rem %PKG_SOURCE%\emet.cmd

if exist "%programfiles%\EMET\emet_conf.exe" (
@FOR /F %%G IN ('"dir /b %systemroot%\system32\macromed\Flash\*.exe 2> nul"') DO "%programfiles%\emet\emet_conf.exe" --set \windows\system32\macromed\Flash\%%G 2> nul
@FOR /F %%G IN ('"dir /b %systemroot%\SysWOW64\macromed\Flash\*.exe 2> nul"') DO "%programfiles%\emet\emet_conf.exe" --set \windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\"%%G 2> nul
)

and append line 

<install cmd='cmd /c "%PKG_SOURCE%\emet.cmd" &gt;nul ' />

to your flash install script.

Disable Automatic Update dialog in Adobe Flash Player

When Using MSI and EXE Installers

Flash Player automatically checks with adobe.com to see if an updated version is available and if there is it presents a dialog prompting the user to upgrade. To disable this update check and prompting you can do the following:

  • if it doesn't already exist, create a directory %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\ (%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash for 64-bit system)
  • if it doesn't already exist, create a file there called "mms.cfg" (this file can also be used to deploy other settings)
  • add an entry in this file: AutoUpdateDisable=1

This configuration can be performed by WPKG using the following: 

<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\' >
 	<exit code="any"/>
</install>
<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\' >
 	<exit code="any"/>
</install>

<upgrade cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\' >
	<exit code="any"/>
</upgrade>
<upgrade cmd='%COMSPEC% /c copy /y /v "%SOFTWARE%\flash\mms.cfg" %WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\' >
	<exit code="any"/>
</upgrade>

<remove cmd='%COMSPEC% /c del /s /q "%WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg"' >
  <exit code="0" />
  <exit code="1" />  <!-- if file does not exist -->
</remove>
<remove cmd='%COMSPEC% /c del /s /q "%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg"' >
  <exit code="0" />
  <exit code="1" />  <!-- if file does not exist -->
</remove>

Either you can deploy this using WPKG as part of the Flash Player installer (Section 1.1 or 1.2), or create a separate package for this setting which would allow you to deploy updates to this file separately to the Flash Player itself.

This file will prevent current and older versions of Flash from auto-updating.

When using EXE Installers

You can use the "-au 2" installation option to disable automatic updates when using the EXE-based installer, but not the MSI-based installer. mms.cfg will be created for you in the normal location.

Older Versions

Adobe Flash Player 11.2 through 15

Package written to keep in-line with previously documented working solutions which should give you the ability to just download the latest and update version number to make the jump to future versions.

The files you download from Adobe are not named the way this package requires. You must rename the NPAPI plugin from install_flash_player.exe to install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_plugin.exe and the ActiveX plugin from install_flash_player_ax.exe to install_flash_player_%MAJORVERSION%_active_x.exe, e.g. install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_plugin.exe and install_flash_player_16.0.0.235_active_x.exe.

Flash Player 12 onwards features "Universal 32-bit and 64-bit installers for Mac and Windows browsers".

Package for WPKG 1.2.1 or higher

Version 14.0.0.176 of the Flash Player was only released for NPAPI and version 14.0.0.179 was only released for ActiveX, so this package supports checking different versions of each plugin. As of 16.0.0.235 no further mismatched-version releases have been made.

Adobe Flash Player 11.1

Starting with Flash Player 11 there is a separate download available for 64-bit Windows.

The 32-bit installer will refuse to install on 64-bit systems.

The 64-bit installer installs the 32-bit and 64-bit executables.

Adobe Flash Player 10

Flash Player 10 is still supported with security updates, the most recent being 10.3.183.11.

The latest version of the 10.x series is no longer available from http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html, that version is 10.3.183.11. To get 10.3.183.11 you have to either go to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and unzip fp_10.3.183.11_archive.zip to get flashplayer10_3r183_11_win.exe, which you can install in the usual way, or manually upgrade from within the program.

10.3 changelog: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/901/cpsid_90194.html#main_authoring

Adobe Flash Player 9.0.246.0 for Firefox

Installer packaged as an executable, installs as a plugin. Sometimes it is upgraded only on the second run of WPKG, it must be a timing issue between installing over previous version and checking conditions. 

<package id="flashplayerfirefox" name="Adobe Flash Player for Firefox" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="0">
  <depends package-id="firefox"/>
  <check type="file" condition="versiongreaterorequal" path="%WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32.dll" value="9.0.246.0"/>
  <install cmd='%SOFTWARE%\Flash\install_flash_player.exe /S' />
  <upgrade cmd='%SOFTWARE%\Flash\install_flash_player.exe /S' />
  <remove cmd='%WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash\uninstall_plugin.exe /S'/>
</package>

If you use WPKG whilst logged in then it's good to kill the Firefox application process before installing Flash Player, since the installer won't work with the browser running. To do this add this to the WPKG code: 

<install cmd="taskkill /F /IM Firefox.exe">
            <exit code="0" />
            <exit code="128" />
</install>

And of course: 

<upgrade cmd="taskkill /F /IM Firefox.exe">
            <exit code="0" />
            <exit code="128" />
</upgrade>

Adobe Flash Player 9.0.246.0 for Internet Explorer

Presumably the Internet Explorer version has the same installation/removal/upgrade syntax as the plugin version above, but the following code has not been tested. 

<package id="flashplayeractivex" name="ActiveX Flash Player" revision="20090730" reboot="false" priority="0">
  <check type="file" condition="versionequalto" path="%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9c.ocx" value="9.0.246.0"/>
  <install cmd='%SOFTWARE%\Flash\install_flash_player_ax.exe /S' />
  <upgrade cmd='%SOFTWARE%\Flash\install_flash_player_ax.exe /S' />
  <remove cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist "%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\Macromed\Flash\uninstall_activeX.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\Macromed\Flash\uninstall_activeX.exe" /S'/>
