Hello, I set up Shockwave and it seems to have issues across different browsers. (Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium) I verified the settings were enabled and changed them multiple times, but the problem persists. It works in Internet Explorer, yet not in WaterFox or Chrome. I’m unsure what’s causing this since I haven’t encountered it before. The screenshot has been adjusted in size. Click this link to see the full image. The original dimensions are 2560x1260. When attempting to run sw_lic_full_installer, I receive the error: "Error opening file for writing: C:\Windows\system32\Adobe\Shockwave12\SWDNLD.exe". From there, I can choose to abort, ignore, or retry. Additionally, the SwDir_1220162.dll file is also problematic. I’ve tried the tutorial on Adobe forums (https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1215365?tstart=0) but haven’t had success after disabling antivirus, checking connections, running as admin, etc. It’s really frustrating. Thank you.

Shockwave requires a 32-bit web browser to function properly.
