Google is a private company and can choose what to do with that company and its resources as it sees fit. In my opinion this should have been done long ago. To have continued to have allowed a product such as flash to use their systems they knowingly potentially allowed its customers to become victims of hackers. It has been known for some time now that hackers use flash as a gateway to our computers and therefore into our wallets.

Hello,

What if my setting section doesn’t have the Always Allow option…now I only see the option for Black flash or Ask first…where did the other option go?

Thank you.

Hello
The same issue with me also. I have no “allow flash to run” option under settings. Even though I have enabled “Ask first”, Flash is always blocked on all the sites, even though I have added them under Allow list.
thanks

This is approximately the 8th set of instructions I have looked at in the last hour which didn’t help one fucking bit. Every single set of ‘instructions’ tells me to click on something that is not on the screen. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

What is up with all you experts? Do you honestly know anything about computers, or is this part of a scam?

Have you considered that you are using a very old version of Google Chrome, that maybe does not have this feature built-in? It is entirely possible.

This fix doesn’t work. I have researched it for weeks to no avail. Trying to stream television and every time I have to manually allow.

My settings page in Chrome does not look like the one shown. There is no add on for adobe flash. (Current Chrome)

I just checked using the latest version of Google Chrome: 65.0.3325.181.
The steps are identical. All the settings are there and look the same. Did you click on Advanced? The Content Settings are in the Privacy and Security section. Look carefully. It is there.

This no longer works since chrome’s last update. The global choices in chrome’s settings no longer have “Allow” as an option, just Ask or Block. If you use an individual’s site settings to Allow, chrome will change it back as soon as you quit chrome.
This is clearly problematic, but Google doesn’t care, I guess.

They have completely changed the setting pages and this is no longer accurite

Thanks for the feedback. We will update the article in the coming weeks.

Yes, there is a solution that will allow Google Chrome to retain Flash preferences:

In the address bar, type: chrome://flags/

Scroll or search for: “Enable Ephemeral Flash Permissions”

Change from Default to Disabled

Relaunch Chrome, and you’re good to go.

I am using Chrome less and less because of this. Hope you’re happy about that, Chrome developers!

Yes, you do need Adobe Flash Player. I don’t know why you want to take it away. Every time something works, you remove it.

Didn’t work; the app icon never appeared when I opened the flash-player page.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (N.O.A.A.) – a.k.a “The National Weather Service” Radar uses Flash for animation – STILL. Even though Flash is going away, they haven’t gotten around to updating this. Hopefully, we won’t need this “help” subject any more.

Thank you because i was struggling in making that

Hi. I did everything listed here. however, I still face the same problem on Twitter. The Twitter videos don’t play even after I have Allowed Flash for that website and also reloaded the page for that site.
if you have any suggestions, please let me know

Tried to access site http://www.bridgebase.com/client/client.php and message says “This SWF contains Action Script 3 which is not yet supported by Ruffle. And site doesn’t load.

I can’t… Chrome does not allow RuffleFlash…

Hi,
My Wifi network controller is managed through a web interface using Flash.
Flash is now blocked, so I can no longer manage my network…
It’s a completely aberrant situation !
Who should I blame for it ?

Peter Doney

I have some iMerge equipment which uses Flash to display its GUI interface.
I normally enter the network address i.e. 19.168.1.10 and I used to get the Web interface.
However, I have added ruffle to Chrome via the developer option but all I get is a black screen.

Is there something else I need to do to get Ruffle to work on the GUI?
