It seems that some programmes are creating this issue. Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and issue the following (replace user with your user name):

sudo chown -R user:user /home/user/.*

And then try installing the flash plugin again:

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer

  • upvote for sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer not for the first command.

Try this

  • Type chrome://plugins in the address bar
  • Click on details
  • Look for Adobe Flash Player connector
  • Deactivate PPAPI
  • Close/open chrome and check it

HTH :)
