Minor correction:
Right-click to Run as Administrator

Why are there no warnings that the installation was halted even though I
answered all the installation security questions with YES or ALLOW?

After installing Flash Player per the method mentioned and restarting as the
program suggestion after successful installation, I went back to Google to
run a video. Now it states that some program wants to run outside of
Protected Mode. I assumed this was Flash Player and said ALLOW.

The warning dutifully went away and then nothing. No video will play.

What is going on?
