johnoo Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 Keep getting message that this is at "End of Life" & I should uninstall. Questions are:- 1 What happens to the features that use Adobe Flash when I uninstall? 2 How do I find what these features are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not indicate what web sites etc. use Flash & it does not state what happens on these sites when Flash is uninstalled. So is it best not to uninstall Adobe Flash?

Boris Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 You would have to establish yourself which of the billions of sites still required Flash to work 🙂 - good luck with that !! If you are using a modern, updated browser you should have no problems anyway. Just uninstall Flash, and if your browser (whatever it may be) doesn't work on a particular site = just try a different browser ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 Should be OK Try this site (web cam of Looe Harbour) https://www.portbyhan.com/live-webcam/ - which works OK for me with Firefox But if you see the message "On this platform you need Adobe Flash player to play this video stream" then you may have a problem ? On this platform you need Adobe Flash player to play this video stream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnoo Posted December 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Boris, Thanks, uninstalled Adobe Flash & used link supplied. The web site/live feed works with Firefox, so looks like I do not have a problem. Thanks for help, & hope it helps others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
