    adobe flash player for win8

    I have a hard time downloading Adobe Flash Player on my Win8 PC. Can someone give me a legit Adobe Web site for the latest Flash Player version?
    Installing Flash Player is not easy as It used to be.

    thank you, Midknyte , for the link.
    I think my Win 8 already has the latest of Adobe Flash Player embedded to it. I can see certain clips under the desktop mode as the link U gave to me, suggested. Complicated indeed.

    Get ready for plug-in free browsing (Internet Explorer)
    ... As a Windows Store app, Internet Explorer 10 runs without plug-ins so that you have a clean, fast, and secure web browsing experience, through it does provide a native Flash player with limited support to play Flash content for sites listed in the Flash section of the Compatability View (CV) list. ...

    Adobe Flash Player

    Just out of curiosity: Is there a way to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player embedded on Win 8?
    The reason for my asking : certain websites asked my to download the latest version of Flash Player... Facebook is one of them...
    It would be nice to install the Adobe Flash Player myself as it used to be.
    PS: Is Win8 using the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. Is there a way to check which version Win8 is using. I have noticed that since I installed Win8, there is one windows update of the Flash Player.
    Regards

    No, there isn't. You have to wait for Microsoft for the Flash security updates as well.

    You could always use a different browser like Firefox or Chrome instead.
