  • Peter Doney says:

    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?

    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 ?

    • Codrut Neagu says:

      Hello, there’s no one to blame actually.
      You could try to contact the manufacturer of your WiFi controller and ask whether a new web interface based on HTML5 is available.
      Otherwise, the only option besides Ruffle, is using an old version of your favorite web browser, that had Flash support (not safe).

  • Some Kid on the Internet says:

    I can’t… Chrome does not allow RuffleFlash…

    • Codrut Neagu says:

      It does allow Ruffle as long as Developer Mode is on. Make sure you follow the steps in our guide exactly.
      It might also be worth checking if you have the latest version of Chrome installed.

  • Don says:

    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.

    • Codrut Neagu says:

      Hello! As I’ve mentioned in the article, Ruffle is in an early development stage so not everything works perfectly. It’s likely that not all Flash websites will work with it, but most are. In the end, right now, it’s the best method of running Flash content.

  • May says:

    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

    Thank you because i was struggling in making that

  • Bill Vincent says:

    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.

  • Chris White says:

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

  • constance hambel says:

    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.

  • Ahmad Kanani says:

    its a good tips

  • Ilse says:

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

  • MattManReturns says:

    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.

  • Derrick says:

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

  • Eric Wagner says:

    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.

  • George says:

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

    • Ciprian Adrian Rusen says:

      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.

  • Angry Chrome User Reverting Back to Safari says:

    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.

  • CBS says:

    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?

    • Anonymous says:

      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.

  • Sarah says:

    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.

    • TJJ says:

      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

    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.
