Adobe Flash Player ActiveX VS. Adobe Flash Player Plugin

在Windows的卸载程序里面，看到有两个关于Adobe Flash Player的卸载项，一个是Adobe Flash Player ActiveX，另一个是Adobe Flash Player Plugin。很想搞清楚它们之间有啥关系，在网上找了找，整理如下。

 

 Adobe Flash Player ActiveX：是IE浏览器(包括IE内核的浏览器)的Flash插件，如果您使用的是IE浏览器，那安装这个插件就可以了；

Adobe Flash Player Plugin：是非IE内核的浏览器Flash插件，如Firefox、Chrome浏览器，那就安装这个插件。

The Flash Player term applies to all browsers that is supported. If you see Flash Player ActiveX in your Add/Remove or Programs and Features, this indicates you have it Installed in Internet Explorer. If you see Flash Player plug-in listed there, it indicates that you have it Installed in Firefox, Chrome or any other browser that is supported.

In the IE add ons, one would also have the Shockwave Flash Object, the ActiveX Control that works with the Flash files for IE that have been Installed and it must be Enabled.

In the FF or other browsers, one would find the SWF vs 10.0.45.2 (latest version) listed and it must be Enabled. This is the plug-in and yes it is needed.

When Installing Flash Player, you would need to Use IE and Install for that browser. Then if you want Flash Player Installed for Firefox or another browser, then Use that browser and Install Flash Player for all non-IE browsers.
