you can check which versions are installed in chrome by navigating to
"chrome://plugins/" from chrome. in the new page, click on "details" on
right hand side.
the first plugin(s) listed should be Flash Player and the descriptions
should tell you what is installed - just "disable" the version you don't
want running.

Thanks Lee, makes a lot of sense. Looks like I've already got non-debugger and
debugger versions installed in Chrome, although you can't tell by the label --
they both reference 11.9.900.117, so perhaps there's one install for both
debugger and non-debugger versions? (no idea)
When I followed Adobe's standard install for the debugger, it appears to have
installed on all browsers in my system.

debugger versions
re 2, i use debugger player in one browser (IE in my case) and default
player in another (chrome). If you use chrome, i think you can install 2
separate version of flash player (enter chrome://plugins/ into chrome to
switch between versions)

Hello,
I have some places in my app when entering a new state is not very responsive
(a lot of math is computed within a frame and causes the system to display a
spinning wheel while the CPU catches up, lasting about 5 seconds). I want to
try placing some callLater() functions to break up the one long frame into
several smaller frames, to make the app more smoothly transition from one state
to the next.
I'd like to use Scout to time the execution of various functions to figure out
where to place callLater(). So far, all my development has been on the debugger
version of Flash Player 11.9.900.117 (the current version).
Some newbie questions:
1. My understanding in reading about Scout is that the debugger version is only
required for memory profiling. Thus, I can use the non-debugger version to get
accurate timing information using the techniques discussed here:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/scout/articles/adobe-scout-custom-telemetry.html
(e.g. trace(), Telemetry.sendMetric(), and Telemetry.sendSpanMetric)
Is that correct?
2. What's the best way to switch between debugger and non-debugger flash player
versions? Do I need to uninstall the debugger first, then install the
non-debugger version? Then if I want to go back to the non-debugger version, do
I need to uninstall the non-debugger version, and then install the debugger
version?
Or, is there really only one install needed, and then somehow in the browser
select a switch that turns the debugger on/off?
I'm really confused on this because when I right-click on my running app, it
shows I'm using 11.9.900,117, although it doesn't say debugger or not. If I go
to this website:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
it does indeed show "Debug Player: Yes". However, when I search google to
install non-debugger Flash Player, it brings me to
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
which says it will install version 11.9.900.117 -- which is what I already have
installed, right !? So, there must be something I'm missing. How do I install
the non-debugger Flash Player?
