I can't uncheck hardware acceleration

I'll start from the beginning - when I watch some video streaming services, in most cases fps is not that good - rather below 30 fps. I heard disabling hardware accelerations might solve the issue, but I can't change that setting. When I right-click some video/object and choose settings, the options window is frozen, I'm not able to change the category. How can I disable hardware acceleration then and will that help to increase fps? Flash version is 18,0,0,232, OS - Windows 10 Home 64-bit.

Run Windows Update to get the latest Flash Player, at which point you should get the option.

Hi,

Please read Flash Player "Enable Hardware acceleration" setting for Edge and IE on Windows 8/10

Hi

Please try the below steps to disable the hardware acceleration:

1. go to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg

2. set DisableHardwareAcceleration=1


Also, can you please share these link where you are getting low FPS.


Thanks
