Because the vast bulk of Flash content was created for websites and run in web browsers, those four developers' plans carried enormous weight.
The big browser makers - Apple, Google, Microsoft and Mozilla - piggybacked on Adobe's July 2017 announcement with their own roadmaps for the end of Player. What Adobe didn't mention was the security disaster Flash had become earlier in the century, the endless rounds of patching security vulnerabilities, often the worst "zero-day" kind, which had prompted so many content makers, former software partners and users to stiff-arm the player. Adobe argued that ending Flash was triggered by the evolution and maturation of open standards - like HTML5, WebGL and WebAssembly - that "provide many of the capabilities and functionalities that plugins pioneered" and thus were "a viable alternative for content on the web." That way you CAN'T POSSIBLY have any of your old settings.In mid-2017, Adobe announced it would retire Flash from support and halt distribution of the application by the end of 2020. Lastly, open IE and go to: to download and install the Shockwave FULL installer for ActiveX (IE). Run the Flash Player installers, and then the Shockwave FULL installer you downloaded. HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software and delete the Macromedia folder there too.Ĭlose the Registry Editor and empty your recycle bin. Open your Registry Editor (Start>Run or press the Windows key + R and type 'regedit' and click OK)ĭelete the Macromedia folder (Right click and choose "Delete"). Run the uninstallers first (both of them) Save all the files and close your browser. You'll need to go to: using IE AFTER everything else is done. You'll need to install Shockwave with the FULL installer for IE too, but there isn't a direct download for it.
