"No flash video displayed" error in YouTube (Rev: 1.1)

Situation

In YouTube website, my niece's computer (Windows XP OS) running Internet Explorer (IE) version 7 browser cannot see the flash video displayed on her screen. The error message was

"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player".

She had already installed the latest Adobe Flash Player version 9.0.124.0 for IE 7 from Adobe website but it still did not work.


Solution

1) Open the Window Explorer. Kindly navigate to C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash folder

2) Locate the file FlashUtil9f.exe and double-click to run it. This will reinstall the Adobe Flash player so that it will display the flash video correctly in YouTube website.
