![]() First, reverting to an old browser version and/or an old Flash version (if one can even find it) will automatically mean you will be susceptible to all the (probably many, in Flash's case) malware exploits and vulnerabilities that were patched away in the months/years after the version was first released. Hence, how you have to go about enabling Flash in an older browser depends on the specific version and brand of the browser involved. Depending on the age of the browser version and the brand, there have been historically different methods of performing that enabling operation, especially in the past year or two as browsers have been redesigned knowing that Flash was going to be deprecated. Will there be a Flash in older versions of the Opera? For example in version 2015? Because i very love Flash.įor most browsers, Flash had to be installed directly into the computer as a plug-in and was then activated for Flash-containing websites by enabling the browser to make use of it via some form of Flash setting in the browser. so it would be understandable for Adobe to take drastic measures to curtail its ongoing use after EOL.īlackbird71 last edited said in Opera - Adobe Flash Player:Ĭan i have some question about Adobe Flash Player? Because it ends next day or in new year and i havent got download some games. Considering how widespread Flash usage has been and, given that it's inherently a scripting language, it's been chock-full of past security holes. In any case, Adobe is making it clear (probably to terminate any post-EOL financial liabilities) that they will actively try to block further Flash usage after 2020. Make of this what you will, but many Flash users believe that kill-switch code or something similar will be (or has been) installed into recent Flash versions that will cause it to cease working at the end of the year. Section 7 states: "As of mid-October 2020, users started being prompted by Adobe to uninstall Flash Player on their machines since Flash-based content will be blocked from running in Adobe Flash Player after the EOL Date." (My emphasis in both quotes) Section 4 states: "Adobe will be removing Flash Player download pages from its site and Flash-based content will be blocked from running in Adobe Flash Player after the EOL Date." ![]() Blackbird71 last edited If one refers to Adobe's Flash Player EOL Information Page, they will note: ( ' ' )
