Unresponsive Flash player applications

If you are using flash based software which becomes unresponsive to clicks, this may be due to Flash player not trusting the file or path you are accessing. To work around this problem you may require a config file to allow flash to trust a file location. In order to open things up ensure you have a folder called 'FlashPlayerTrust' in the following path.

'C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\
'

Within this folder create a file with the .cfg extension, inside this file you will require the path of the folder you wish to trust, you can put multiple paths in this file, one on each line

e.g.

C:\Path\to\application\1
C:\Path\2
C:\Any\Other\Path

Just to make sure, give the machine a restart and you should find the application now works as expected.
