If you're having trouble with Adobe's beta wrapper, you should go with
one of the other wrappers.
Because AIR is a wrapper that is being pushed by a major company (Adobe)
and because they've been marketing it heavily, and because they want it
to be widely used and they want people to feel safe installing AIR
applications, AIR cannot have the level of power that other wrappers
have when it comes to accessing the operating system.
The fact is, with any other Flash wrapper, you can do some truly
nefarious things. Heck, you could probably achieve some nasty stuff
with AIR as it is right now.
The only true benefits I see in AIR over other wrappers are:
1) Unified cross-platform development
2) First-Party Wrapper (Adobe)
That's it. If neither of those is important to your particular project,
you probably are better off using mProjector or Zinc.
