I've tried multiple times but it the add-in still shows version 18.0.0.203 and says it needs to be updated. Is this version being blocked also?

Ok. Did you try to uninstall previous Flash (18.0.0.203) before installing new (18.0.0.209)? And where do you go to check version?

No, version 18.0.0.209 is not anymore blocked. Do you have an error message during/after insllatation? Or do you just install the new version and nothing changes?

I did not uninstall the previous version first. I'll try that.

I go thru the add-ins page on firefox and click from there to update. I also went directly to the Adobe website and downloaded and installed from there.

Thanks. I'll let you know if uninstalling first works.
