I've updated to Firefox 7.01, and now Flash Player 11 doesn't work, even though everything says that it's been successfully installed on Firefox. What to do?

I've downloaded Flash Player 11.0.1.152 for non-IE browsers from the Adobe Download Center, installed it all fine, says it's successfully installed even on this page: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

But it still tells me to download it when I try to play YouTube videos, BBC iPlayer, etc. I'm on Windows 7 64-bit, though that shouldn't be a problem since the installer says that it includes both 64-bit and 32-bit versions (which should suit the 32-bit Firefox 7.01 just fine).

Problem fixed. Had to uninstall Flash from the control panel and then reinstall.
