Going to miss those Flash games. Adobe will no longer be supporting Flash Player after December 31, 2020 and Adobe will block Flash content from running in Flash Player beginning January 12, 2021

    Flash games back when were lots of fun. Nowadays though, I'm actually glad Adobe player is no more.
    And to think that Steve Jobs was criticized for dissing on it at the time cause he thought HTML5 was the future and adobe flash sucked.

    Try using Flashpoint or Ruffle Flash emulator.

    Already uninstalled months ago now the last thing to do is run this KB4577586 from Microsoft to remove the last of it and say goodbye to it in the Control Panel, but I've been waiting to do that sometime in the first half of '21.

    Haven't played a flash game in ages, but good to know there are emulators out there.

    I was so bummed when flash started to disappear. I have so many fond memories of my flash heavy younger days on the 'net. Security issues aside, I wax nostalgic every time flash is mentioned.

    Current Build:
    Ryzen 9 3900XT
    Arctic 420mm AIO
    MSI MEG x570 ACE
    32 GB Trident Z Neo CL16 3600mhz DDR4
    EVGA GTX 980 ACX 2.0
    Sabrent Rocket NVMe PCI 4.0 1TB
    EVGA Supernova G2 850 Gold
    Thermaltake Level 20 XT
     
    Best quote I've ever heard:
    Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio.

    What is this world coming to... we have flash emulators now. I used to have flash turned off because it slowed down my 56k
