I have removed all Flash from our company environment as it reached EOL.

However I need to revive it on at lease one machine temporarilly.

For this system we are using, I need Flash to upgrade the system out of Flash era.

Can someone tell me how I can install Flash now? Normal installtion file is not working.

    In Windows 10, Flash Player is a part of the system. Unless you run the patch to remove it. This is a Microsoft patch and is irreversible (by design). This system Flash Player is used by IE and Edge, but not by Firefox.

    To give you any useful advice, I'm going to need to know more about your computer and browser:

    Computer is regular Windows 10 desktop with enough resources.

    I can use any of Firefox, IE and Edge for this system. All I need is installing Adobe Flash on W10 computer for any of those browsers.

    It's a shame you didn't plan for this sooner.  Since the EOL, there are no more links to Flash Player from Adobe or vendors who embedded Flash Player into their browsers.
