Hi

I am just out of answers and can some-one guide me in the right direction.
I am trying to software deploy flash to update all the computers, I have downloaded the .msi package from adobe, I have tried computer/user and even login scipt to deploy it without success, the users login as power users to the domain and when they go to youtube.com, they need flash player.

I have tried logging in as admin to the local machine and install it manually without any problems, just can't figure how to get it to gpo the flash. Just don't seem to install and there was no error messages.

Did you review the online help if you google gpo software deployment?

technet.microsoft and support.microsoft both have good articles on the subject.

Yes, I have reviewed it and followed the MSI deployment via active directory guide and when I check the event viewer on the local machines, I get this error, Product:adobe flash player 10 activex-error 1327.invalid drive H:\
We do have a mapped H:drive to their documents on the server, but I setup the GPO for computer software installation, so it should install it during startup of the machine which failed. I am not sure how to get this invalid H:\ problem solved.

H: and their documents location have nothing to do with installing/updating flash.
This is an add/remove programs thing.
Where in the gpo are you referring to h:?

try using the unc path to the installer? Are you using the gpmc, are the group policies being correctly applied?

The installer GPO software install in the computer settings are using UNC path.

I have found out the problems, the local machines .default registry had My pictures and my documents pointing to the H:\ I tried to use redirection to login and then remove redirection in GPO but it still shows in the registry as H:\

I finally changed it manually and add it in the startup script to fix this.
