Flash Player not working with Internet Explorer

Question

I'm using Windows 8.1 and explorer 11. Until recently there were no flashplayer issues but now I'm unable to use it for websites where it is required. I've gone through all the troubleshooting steps that are shown online and when I check through the adobe website it says that flashplayer is still not installed. Shockwave Flash Object is enabled and ActiveX Filtering is not on. Any suggestions to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated!

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 and Edge introduce a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.

You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.
