Hi, Is it saying that it can't be opened because it's from an unidentified developer, or that it can't run the installer because you need to quit some running Flash app. If it's the former, when you go to open the Install Flash app, use VO-shift-m to bring up the Contextual menu and choose Open from there. If the latter, then you'll need to go into the Activity Monitor within your Utilities folder, and locate the "FlashBridge-Cross-Platform" activity. Select it and quit the process in order for the installer to continue.
HTH. Later...
