FlashPlayer only works once after reinstall
Hi, i'm out of ideas and i need some help.
I currently have the problem, that my flashplayer is not working anymore. When i reinstall Firefox and Flashplayer it works exactly one time. As soon as i close firefox and open it again, its broken again.
How does it manifest FlashPlayer is not working? Opening a YouTube video, the video doesn't start. I can see the menu and right clicking shows me the Flash context menu. I can open global settings, but clicking "settings" doenst do anything. Visiting the Settings Pages at adobe.com shows me just a blank space. It recognizes there's flash, shows context menu but it shows nothing.
What i already tried: At first i tried turning off different Addons one by one, resetting Firefox and check with "about:plugins" if the Path is correct and if its activated. (It is.) i reinstalled firefox completly, including addons, all saved data. Complete new installation. And i uninstalled and installed Flashplayer. (13.0.0.214) Last thing i tried was installing Beta Firefox (v.30.0) But nothing helped. It works on the first start, then its broken.
Here are some technical informations (Troubleshooting Information) - Sorry its german: __________________________________________________________________________________________________ Allgemeine Informationen

Hi, don't worry about it. We can read it.
First try to follow these directions:
- Uninstall Flash player using Adobe's tool: http://download.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/support/uninstall_flash_player.exe
- Go to get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download the latest Flash
- Close Firefox
- Run the installer
- Try again.
If that doesn't work, you can try to disable Protected Mode in Flash 11.3 and above by adding the line ProtectedMode=0 to the Flash "mms.cfg" file located in one of these locations: [46]
(Windows 32bit) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash (Windows 64bit) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
For example, on a Windows 7 64-bit system, open the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, copy the file "mms.cfg" to the desktop, open it in Notepad, add a new line ProtectedMode=0
and then close Notepad, saving your changes. Next, go back to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, rename the original file to "mms.cfgBAK" (to save it as a backup) and then drag and drop in the modified "mms.cfg" file from the desktop. [47] [48] [49]
Note: To re-enable Flash Protected Mode, either restore a backup of the original mms.cfg file, if you saved one, or else re-edit the mms.cfg file to remove the ProtectedMode=0 l
line you added. Updating Flash Player or installing a newer version does not automatically re-enable Protected Mode

Disabling ProtectedMode worked. Thanks.
