Why do I continue to get Plugin crashes and "unresponsive Plugin" messages, no matter what I do?
BEFORE I get too into this, I must note that I'm using Windows 10...
within the span of roughly two hours, I've been experiencing multiple plugin crashes and "unresponsive Plugin" messages. I've tried numerous methods of fixing this, including: resetting firefox, checking to see if my plugins are up to date (which they are), un-installing and re-installing Flash, checking updates for firefox its self, disabling the "use hardware acceleration when available" option.... none of it worked. the persistent warning continues to pop up, despite my efforts to correct it; Message appearing on youtube http://prntscr.com/8gnfp1 and another on Mozilla Support while I was trying to get help on the topic http://prntscr.com/8gnghr
this issue has been getting exceedingly worse in the last few days, but has been a minor problem starting around 8/25/15. It's getting to the point where normal browsing, searching for information to do homework, and even business efforts regarding the selling of my artwork are nearly impossible to complete because the same errors are occurring - which, in turn, stall out my browser.
before ANYONE asks, here are my crash reports, starting from the most recent at the top, to the point where the problem first arose at the bottom. if anyone could help me, that would be immensely appreciated. Failing a College class because i cant complete the homework is extremely embarrassing and uncalled for - and losing out on money-making opportunities to help pay for said classes is even worse.

awesome! thank you so much @FredMcD that actually worked! (of course, the only thing i didnt try, mainly because i didnt know i had two versions of the same plug-in) everything's running smoothly now :) videos are working, and i'm assuming flash games should be too
Glad to help. Safe surfing.
