Flash Player & Shockwave Player

Hi Everyone,

I'm new and a beginner Let me give my history.. I'm having issues w Flash and Shockwave Players. I had both installed at one time and they disappeared. I reinstalled Shockwave but could not reinstall Flash. The programs I use, needed shockwave for always sent me a message to download it. I inistalled it today and was able to install both. The programs I use, needed both for still do not recognize them. I went to add/remove programs, both are listed but Flash has no size listed next to it. I then ran a search of my computer, neither could be found. Can anyone share your wisdom with me? Thanks

 

Pete,
I tried your suggestion and may flash player installed, can get in You Tube. Tried the same thing what I though was similar sight w no luck,. Thank you so much. Keep helping me w shockwave please.

 

Pete, I tried your suggestion and again uninstalled and reinstalled shockwave. Also I tried to use a program which required flash since my last post and it couldn't find flash. I wish knew more about a computer. I did know enough to have DELL support run a diagnostic on my computer to rule out it as the source.
Thanks for your help
