  • Hey....I'm trying to play yahoo chess, the new version and it says that I have an old version of the client in my cache....so it wont open. How do I fix this?

  • Answer:

    Recently Yahoo updated their chess software program and you now need the new version. The first thing you will have to do is remove the old software demo. Standard clearing the cache does not remove game demos (deleting browser history old files clearing cookies, etc) They have to be deleted by manually selecting the Yahoo demo program. There are 3 ways of doing this,not all PCs are the same, #1 Click start button, then search, click on files/folders, type in yahoo chess. When file comes up, right click on it and then click remove. Next time you visit Yahoo chess it will prompt you to download the new demo of Yahoo's newest version of chess. #2 Go to tools on your tool bar, then select Internet options, browser history, settings button, view objects. Select the game chess and then delete it. #3 Go to start,my PC, click on C-drive, open the windows folder, open the downloaded programs folder.your games are listed there. delete the chess file. I use flash player 9 which is needed for games now with no problems. The old #7 will not play many of the yahoo games.

If all that still doesn’t work then try uninstalling your flash player 9 to an older version flash player 7. Good luck.
