• Flash Player is not working, what should I do?

    Hello, friends! In this article, we will look at what can be done if flash player not working in your browser. Nobody (not even adobe.com) knows why Flash Player doesn't work. They also give a list of recommendations. Some of that list made it into this article. Recommendations are arranged in ascending order of difficulty. By following the recommendations at some stage, the Flash player will still work, but it is not known at what stage. In conclusion, I will give a shorter list that I will most likely use. This, of course, is not the easiest option, but, it seems to me, the shorter one.

    First, a short educational program. What you need to know about Adobe Flash Player.

    There are two versions of Adobe Flash Player

    • For Internet Explorer browser
    • For all other browsers

    You also need to know that Flash Player is built into Google Chrome and it is updated along with the browser.

    In any case, you need to update your browser. How to do this is described in detail.

    Enable the Flash Player Plugin in the Browser

    To work correctly, Adobe Flash Player must be installed and enabled in your browser.

    How to enable Flash Player in Internet Explorer

    Open the main menu and select "Configure add-ons"

    Select "Types of add-ons" - "Toolbars and extensions"

    "Display" - "All add-ons"

    We find the Shockwave Flash Object and if its state is "Disabled", click the "Enable" button at the bottom right. Restart the browser and try.

    If there is no Shockwave Flash Object add-on, then you just need to install Adobe Flash Player.
