Hi everyone, my sister has had the Adobe flash player app on her mac still for a long time. It has occasionally sent her notifications asking her to uninstall it, but she never did. I wasn't sure how to uninstall so I searched for "flash player" in finder to find the app. While we were in the process of deleting it, I accidentally opened it.

I should also mention that when I found the app, it had the normal flash player icon and was either called "flash player" or something like "flash player installer". When I accidentally opened it, it brought me to another screen had some options on it that I ended up clicking "skip this version" on. After this I went and put the app in the trash and emptied the trash.

For your convenience, the top Flash player alternatives in this article are divided into three rubrics based on the platforms, browsers, and devices you can use to install them. Feel free to explore all the categories to find one or two solutions that match your needs more closely.

Lightspark an open-source alternative to Flash Player that is available both as a desktop application and a browser extension. This player runs any kind of Flash-based format on Windows and Linux and works well in Chrome, Opera, Firefox, and other browsers. Lightspark provides an extended set of code-editing features and also allows for viewing H.264 Flash videos on YouTube. You can download it here.

OpenSilver is a free open-source tool serving as an alternative to Microsoft Silverlight. OpenSilver is more a development tool than a player, but you can use it to run Flash-based content on your Windows PC. OpenSilver is compatible with both desktop and mobile browsers. Powered by WebAssembly, it not only supports SWF format but also enables work with different programming languages for web development. You can download OpenSilver here.

Gnash flash player is a solid replacement for Adobe Flash Player that comes as a standalone desktop player and a web browser plug-in. It supports all Flash-based multimedia formats and serves as a great alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Mac. As a plugin, Gnash is available in many popular browsers. Its version for Windows, however, has not received updates since 2012, so it provides no support for SWF version 10. You can download Gnash here.

Elmedia Player is a media player that supports displaying different video formats on Mac, including FLV and SWF files. Users can stream videos in Flash format from their macOS devices via AirPlay and broadcast them on a smart TV. Elmedia Player also enables playback control and working with subtitles, and lets you enjoy viewing Flash videos in a full screen mode. You can download it here.

Flash itself reaches end of life at Dec 31, 2020. It's an old technology which has suffered from numerous security issues, and as such I see no reason that new security issues won't be found in the future. So, I would consider flash to be unsafe to use. The only way you can "safely" use an unsafe technology (especially one which has known vulnerabilities which will never be patched) is to contain any breaches. The best way to do this is by using a virtual machine, or by using a dedicated machine which is segmented from the rest of your internal network.

I am not sure why you are wary of using a VM. If an attacker were to compromise your VM by exploiting flash, they would then have to break out of the VM sandbox to compromise your host. Is this impossible? I'm sure it's not. However if you are using a supported VM at its latest version, the attacker is going to need to have access to a 0-day (or 1-day) exploit, and I'm sorry but I have my doubts they would burn a valuable sandbox escape on someone like you, who is just looking to play FarmVille. There are bigger fish to fry.

Besides, like I said, the only way you can use a vulnerable program "safely" is to contain a breach when it happens. VMs are the best way to do this. If you have questions about VM safety, I would ask another question specifically about that.

If the Flash object is for example fully in the users control (i.e. local disk, DVD etc) then it is sufficiently safe to execute it on a normal system. One must make sure though that it will not accidentally execute any other Flash objects from potentially untrusted sources. This might happen for example when saving Flash content from the internet, plugging in a data medium from an untrusted source or similar. So it might better be some kind of isolated system which is used only for very specific tasks.

I have found that there are some alternative browser options/apps out there that will allow you to function on iOS with sites that use adobe flash. Im wondering if this is a good idea, since I need to use it with a particular budgeting/bill pay site that is linked to my banking accounts? I use this site every day to pay bills, budget and track spending, but it will not work on ipad or iphone due to requiring flash. This is one of the few things that makes me consider replacing my old laptop with another PC vs going to a second ipad in our home. I have to have access to this site when I am away from my mac or other PC. Just wondering if it is a safe and secure idea to use one of the alternate browsers like Puffin, or another work around app since Im dealing with financial information?

Kappy, I have been using Puffin a bit and it seems to work well with the program I use. My question is, whether or not it's just as safe to use something like that, compared to safari, since I'm entering in user ID and password. I'm more concerned about the security than what will work?

Yes, I understand that Safari doesn't play flash. I guess what I'm questioning is how safe/secure are the apps that you mentioned above... Puffin, SkyFire etc...when using them for online banking? I'm just not sure how these apps or browsers work and was wondering if my login and password information would be passing through somewhere it might be vulnerable, more so than if I were just logging onto the site from my Mac at home using Safari (which does allow flash). Are these apps just alternative browsers that allow flash? Sorry to be so confusing.

I can't watch any Youtube video's at all. It's telling me to downlaod the flash player. I just wanna make sure before I do, that its safe too do so? When I download it will it mess something with my warenty or no? Thanks in advance!

We're in the process of planning for Flash's retirement in 2020. Our Physics department has some old resources that are flash-based - it's a collection of interactive .swf files that have an exe file as a front end. The exe is based on an old version of Flash Player.

Use the Global Security Settings panel to specify if SWF or FLV content that uses older security rules can access the Internet. (For information about why you may need to do this, see What are security settings?) To help you decide if it is safe to allow the older security rules to be used, ask yourself: Did I originally download this content myself from a website that I trust? Is the SWF or FLV content trying to communicate with a website that I trust? The website with which the SWF or FLV content wants to communicate is listed in the pop-up dialog that appears when the SWF or FLV content first tries to communicate with the website.

How could an attacker exploit these vulnerabilities?

In a web-based attack scenario where the user is using Internet Explorer for the desktop, an attacker could host a specially crafted website that is designed to exploit any of these vulnerabilities through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to view the website. An attacker could also embed an ActiveX control marked "safe for initialization" in an application or Microsoft Office document that hosts the IE rendering engine. The attacker could also take advantage of compromised websites and websites that accept or host user-provided content or advertisements. These websites could contain specially crafted content that could exploit any of these vulnerabilities. In all cases, however, an attacker would have no way to force users to view the attacker-controlled content. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to take action, typically by clicking a link in an email message or in an Instant Messenger message that takes users to the attacker's website, or by opening an attachment sent through email.

Note Setting the level to High may cause some websites to work incorrectly. If you have difficulty using a website after you change this setting, and you are sure the site is safe to use, you can add that site to your list of trusted sites. This will allow the site to work correctly even with the security setting set to High.

Note Disabling Active Scripting in the Internet and Local intranet security zones may cause some websites to work incorrectly. If you have difficulty using a website after you change this setting, and you are sure the site is safe to use, you can add that site to your list of trusted sites. This will allow the site to work correctly.

No, it is not safe to download Adobe Flash from third-party websites as they may contain malicious versions of the software. It is recommended to only download Adobe Flash directly from the official Adobe website.

However, in late 2020, Adobe discontinued Flash Player support, urging users to remove it and look for a third-party FLV player and SWF player for Mac to play Flash files. Luckily, there are a number of Windows and Mac Flash Player alternatives to consider.

I was about two thirds finished with updating Ubuntu when my computer, an older macbook pro, just shup itself off. Now when I try to start it up it tries to boot straight to Ubuntu instead of Linux and just freezes on the start up screen. I had hoped to fix a problem I was having playing a game with flash player.

This sounds like an issue I am running into. I have display on a Linux box for a client which is showing a series of webpages which use flash. Everything is up-to-date. (Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04, Firefox 3.0.14 etc). The page loads and displays fine for about 24 hours and then randomly decides it does not have the correct version of Flash! Very strange since the website remains the same and no one is touching the computer(the keyboard and mouse are removed!).

Is it checking against some version number on the website which perhaps is not compatible with the latest linux flash release? 0852c4b9a8
