    I have not had the icon added automatuically to my W7 laptop. From https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3081048 i saw there was now a diagnostic tool available so I downloaded it. Before running it I looked to see if anyone had used it and what was the outcome. The person reported a problem due to the absence of KB2952664. I did not have it so found a version at https://www.askwoody.com/2014/flash-player-update-kb-2952664/ and installed it. So hoping that was the only issue I ran the diagnostic tool. 24 (i do mean twenty four) minutes later it was still “working” so I terminated it. a. Have I been too hasty in stopping it? b. Has anyone got any experience of the tool? Brian

      If you have the updates listed in this thread the update will happen in its own time.

      If you want to do it now you need to let the diag program run to completion.

      BTW, did you check the license via “slmgr /dli”?

      Thanks for your ideas. The updates you referred to have been made. I ran the diagnostic tool again and got a message that I needed to install KB2952664. I had. So I uninstalled it. Rebooted. Installed it again. Rebooted. Ran the diagnostic tool again and got the same message.

      So I will keep an eye on the first url I referred to in case more ideas/updated tool is published.

      I was not aware of slmgr /dli I ran it and got a window whose final line was
      License Status: Licensed
      so I seem to have a valid licence.

      For any reader who is unsure what to do
      open command prompt and type in
      slmgr /dli
      hit enter and the window appears.
