I have received messages about EOL Flash Player. I use Adobe Acrobat Reader DC simply to read PDFs. What do I need to do, in order to continue doing this?

    You can continue to read PDFs with Adobe Acrobat Reader, and any other apps. This is quite separate from Adobe Flash Player, which is going away and has no replacement. Confusing, I know, but Adobe make more than 50 different apps...

    Thank you for this clarification.  I thought that it might be the case, as Acrobat Reader is very widely used to read PDFs.  However, I didn't want to get a nasty surprise on 1 January.
