Removed from Chromium in January, which means Microsoft Edge and Opera, which are both based on Chromium, are likely to do the same (in theory there could be a delay before they implement the updated code, but we wouldn’t count on it). Google Chrome will block Flash Player as “out of date” as of January 2021, theĭevelopers say. Safari 14, which doesn’t support Flash, has been available since September. As we say, it’s been a long and gradual process.Īpple was the first browser maker to remove Flash support. Upcoming versions of all the major browsers are expected to remove Flash support, as our colleagues on Computerworld summarised in detail

Technically that’s up to the individual browser makers, but basically the answer is no. Will my web browser still be able to play Flash content? Microsoft will end support for Adobe Flash Player on December 31, 2020, along with Adobe and their other industry partners. Older and less frequently updated sites will just stop working, and presumably see traffic drop off a cliff. Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support. We imagine that commercially viable websites (ones with a significant advertising income, in other words) will stop using Flash entirely and transition to a different platform, if they haven’t done so already.
