Notification of updates.

Hello,

I would like to know if email alerts are available for new versions of Adobe Flash Player.

Indeed I would like to be informed as soon as a new version is available.

Going by email is more interesting for me than receiving notifications directly from the application because in companies, these are often disabled.

Thank you for coming back.

With kind regards

This page Adobe Security Bulletins and Advisories  has an option to register to receive Security Bulletin notifications.  Unfortunately, you cannot select to receive Security Bulletins for a specific product, so by registering you'll receive notifications for all Adobe products.


Normal Flash Player releases are on the second Tuesday of the month (Patch Tuesday).  You can set a calendar reminder to check for an update on that day.

Alternatively, you can opt into Background Updates, which is the quickest way to automatically update Flash Player.  Systems opted into Background Updates are normally updated within 24 hours of a new version being available, assuming the system is connected to the internet.

I've signed up to the Alert but so far I haven't received any email from Adobe regarding security updates, though the fix is published in bulletin already. Can you please help check why it's not working for some accounts? Thanks!

The link you posted does not appear to be complete.  Was this link in the email you received?  What is the subject of the email?

The link was on the support pages where opening the link should enable me to sign up for security bulletins
