I have Adobe Flash Player installed on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS 32-bit but there seems to be a few instances of the same player especially in Google Chrome. When I check through chrome://plugins/ I saw two entries and after I uninstalled by invoking the following commands:



sudo apt-get remove adobe-flashplugin 
sudo apt-get remove adobe-flash
sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-installer
sudo dpkg --purge flashplugin-installer
sudo apt-get remove --purge ubuntu-restricted-extras adobe-flashplugin flashplugin-installer


I still got an entry in chrome://plugins/ that can be identified in the following screenshot.
enter image description here



I would like to remove all instances of Flash Player and perform a clean reinstall, can you provide help on this issue?



Thanks in advance

That flash is the one that is bundled with Google Chrome (and can only be used by Google Chrome). As such, you can't remove that without removing Chrome.
