You can still use your flash games it won't stop over night.

1. You still have sources for where the games are.
2. You keep backups of the last Flash download to make it easy to find.

But as the years go on it's going to get less and less..... Unless you get a bit more modern and flash games get updated to run using another technology.

Ya I hear ya Snoop....... They always make things harder FOR NO BLASTED REASON it seems....


Its all very sad :(

Except for security issues, technology advances, and the fact there are better things out there...

What Hugh said.

I think that had Adobe been able to get the security vulnerabilities under control, we'd likely have Flash player for a few more years yet.

Sadly, they couldn't. Doing so would likely have required a massive investment, and when most modern browsers can do virtually everything we previously needed Flash Player for using built in functionality, Adobe probably thought they wouldn't see enough of a return on that investment.

As for no reason, I think Hugh got it right.. Security should be a massive issue for anyone who even connects a computer to the internet. Disabling a product that is both a massive source of security problems and barely used by most people is, IMO, a no brainer.

Personally, I can't remember the last time I used a flash website. The only computer I had it installed on (which has since been re-installed with no flash player) was my laptop. The only reason I had it installed is for home schooling. When they switched to home schooling in March, the school my Niece and Nephew go to required they go to one website that, at that time, still required flash.

Thankfully, it seems to have been updated now.

I was informed on my pc that my Adobe flash would have been out of date at the end of 2020 and to uninstall it, when I did this it came up with reinstalled ,

It's uninstalled the old version first and reinstalled the latest, personally if you don't use it then uninstall it.
