Lost "Edit Options" button used when downloading an update (ex Adobe reader) that allows you to click allow in order to receive the update. Can someone tell me how to get it back? Please?

I t will tell you to look for a yellow bar at the top usually under the tool bar and it will ask you to "Edit Options" when you do, it will ask you if you allow the download/update or not. My problem is, I am not getting this yellow bar anymore that gives me the "Edit Options" button so therefore, I do not think I am getting any updates!

You didn't lose that button. It is Adobe that is lost and haven't update their instructions for a long time :wink:

The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the installation with a double-click on that file.
See How do I edit options to add Adobe to the list of allowed sites

Thank you cor-el. Yes, this did take care of the problem. There are a lot of instructions out there and probably nearly impossible to update them all, but you would think with a company that has so many updates (ex Adobe) they could do a little better with their instruction sheets! Have a great day and I hope if I have any more problems, you will see them have and answer so quickly!
