    Don’t bother trying to update with that link. The Flash Player used by edge is locked down by Microsoft and only Windows updates can change it. Also ignore update messages, they may be an attempt to attack your computer with a fake.

    I did not know that (see, I said I didn't know about Edge!).

    Have you tried updating Flash?

    I'll move this to the Flash forum for you in case updating Flash doesn't work for you. Someone there will more likely be able to answer your question. I don't use Edge, so I can't.

     

    This could, though, be happening because by the end of this year, no browser will support Flash. Edge many just be trying to warn you of that.
