I am using firefox portable 16.0.2 as i am at work and do not have admin privileges. When i open You tube, firefox asks me to update adobe flash player. Flash player is installed and i can see videos using Chrome and IE.It was working fine a few days ago.
I am guessing that adobe came up with some newer version and firefox wants me to update.I understand they do this cos they think the older version may have security risks etc.But i cannot update it (cannot ask the admin, they never agree).Is there a solution to this.thanks.

Shockwave Player 11
I visited the page you have linked and although it did not help me directly (as the stand alone installer mentioned here was made in 2008), i ended up reading the whole discussion. I solved my problem like this:. # 1. Went to my home computer where i have admin rights and unpacked the 'Portable Firefox Package' there. # 2. Updated everything. # 3.
Copied the entire folder on a USB drive. # 4. At work, deleted the portable firefox already there and copy pasted from the USB the firefox folder from my home computer!!. # 5. And, since everything is updated there, it is working fine now.
# 6. In future now, all i have to do is update the things at home and copy paste either the entire thing or just one or more files.Thanks Again.Crohbys5.

I cannot figure out how to post to get answers so I will just reply here in hopes that someone can help. I am getting an error message telling me that I am not the admin and cannot run updates. I 'AM' the admin, this is my MAC computer and I have 'never' used parental controls or anything else. How do I get past this and please do not tell me to reinstall because I then have to go in and figure out how to uninstall the old version and I really do not have time for that and have no desire to have all of those things downloaded into my wonderful MAC.

Install Shockwave Player Without Admin Rights Video
The only browser that my college’s shared computer provides in the Windows environment is. Don’t ask me why, but you can imagine the level of difficulty I have to face while working on it.
Being a one cannot install a standalone browser on any of these computers but thanks to, I could use the portable versions of Firefox or Chrome without administrative access.However, one thing that was missing on these portable browsers was Flash player plugin and due to lack of the installer failed in the middle of the process. I tried installing the plugin on a computer where I had administrative rights and later on use the same on a public computer, but it didn’t work out as I expected it to. So here’s an alternative method I found that works most of the times.Note: The flash files we will be using for the trick will not be downloaded from an official source and therefore I take no responsibility for any security or privacy issues related to the file. I am just showing you the way things are done. It completely depends on you whether you choose to take up the trick. Getting Flash Plug-in Without Admin RightsTo start with, download the Flash and extract the files on your computer. You might have to change the file extension to ZIP before you can extract the contents.If you don’t see the extension of the file, Windows 8 users can open the View ribbon menu and check the option File name extension.
Windows 7 users will have to click on View—Folder Option and uncheck the option to hide file extension for known file types and save the settings. Having done that, you can rename the file to one with a.zip extension and extract it to a folder in the computer. The archive contains two DLL files for both. If you are not sure about the architecture of Windows that you are using, you can have a look at our article on getting back where we have shown it in step 2.After you have extracted the files it’s time to copy them to the specific folders in the browser. You don’t need to copy all the files that are contained in the archive.
Just copy the DLL file that’s relevant to your computer architecture and the Flashplayer.xpt file to these destinations. The executable file is the normal flash installer that needs administrative rights for installation. Firefox Portable: Dataplugins.
Shockwave Flash Linux
Opera Portable: Programplugins. Chrome Portable: ChromepluginsNote: Please make sure you close all the instances of the browser that are running on the computer before you copy these files.After you have copied the files launch the browser and open the YouTube homepage to see if you can play the videos. You might see that the browser will continue to show banner to install Flash, but once you click on the video control, it should start playing. ConclusionIf you notice that your browser is freezing after copying the plugin files, there might be some problem with the DLL file.
Make sure you have copied the correct architecture file and try again. Best of luck!Last updated on 8 Feb, 2018.
