Flash player plugin file location
I don't have admin rights on my work computer but I've managed to install Firefox which is great considering the alternative is IE. To get flash working I've followed these instructions in the past: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/935955 but the files it mentions aren't in the version of Flash I downloaded
I have Flash installed on my home PC (Mac booted into Windows) and went to grabb the NPSWF32.dll file and moving it across but it's not there either.
The latest version of either Flash or Firefox doesn't seem to put them in the Plugins folder any more.
I'm using Firefox v21 and Flash player 11.6.

For me: I found both files at C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" (create this folder when missing) to make Firefox find them again.
i found an old version at C:\Windows\SysWOW64\NPSWF32.dll which wasn't removed by an update -- was on win7
