XP/Vista: Flash PPAPI plugin 23.0.0.162 doesn't work in Opera and Chromium

After flash updated to version 23.0.0.162 PPAPI plugin stop working in all Chromium based browsers (except Chrome, because Chrome use integrated PPAPI version 22.0.0.209). Chromium based browsers (Chromium 49, Opera 36) on flash content show message "couldn't load plugin."

In IE and Firefox Flash plugin work fine (and Chrome too because use 22 ppapi plugin version).

I replace pepflashplayer32_23_0_0_162.dll to ppapi dll version 22.0.0.209 from Chrome and Chromium based browsers start showing flash content again.

Please fix PPAPI dll. This trouble stole 3 hours of my time.

OS: Windows XP SP3 32bit

Browsers: Opera 36, Chromium 49

If your OS Windows, you can replace pepflashplayer32_23_0_0_162.dll in your system to pepflashplayer.dll from Chrome browser and rename it to pepflashplayer32_23_0_0_162.dll

This fix work fine for me.

I'm not using Chrome since it will no longer support by Windows Vista. I'm using Opera! I'm completely clueless to what your talking about.
