How to install FLASH in CHROME

Question

I've tried literally EVERYTHING on the web, and NONE of it works.

Most say something like "Type 'chrome:plugins'" in the address bar of Chrome. This converts to "chrome://plugins" but takes you to a page that simply says,

"This site can’t be reached The webpage at chrome://plugins/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. ERR_INVALID_URL"

I've searched and searched to get Flash working in chrome, but NOTHING HELPS.

Will someone PLEASE make it possible to not need to run FIREFOX to watch YouTube, etc.? -- Thanks.

Google embeds Flash Player in Chrome, but disables it by default, forcing users to enable it manually.

Google removed the chrome://plugins option several releases ago. Anything you find referring to chrome://plugins is no longer relevant.

Please see Google's support page, Use or fix Flash audio & video - Computer - Google Chrome Help , for assistance. If you continue to experience issues after working through Google's support page, please provide the following:

operating system version (e.g. OS X 10.11.6, macOS 10.12.3)
exact link to the page you are attempting to view Flash on
Chrome version and Flash Player version - both can be obtained from chrome://flash, for example:
