First let me apologize for posting in this community. I tried to post this in Adobe Flash Player but i kept getting a view only message.

So i recently updated Adobe Flash player to 32.0.0.465 but when i did so .swf files stopped displaying the flash image on the .swf files. I know how to replace .ico files but i can't find where flash stores it's .ico file.

Installation

Again I'd like to apologize for posting in this community. I tried to post this in Adobe Flash Player but i kept getting a view only message and then a moderator moved myfirst post to that community preventing replies from being posted so i need to re-post this here (at least until posts in that community can be replied to). Also he kept making an irelevant comment about some old misinformation from a few years ago the answer to my question despite having nothing to due with .ico files which was really weird.

So i recently updated Adobe Flash player to 32.0.0.465 but when i did so .swf files stopped displaying the flash image on the .swf files. I know how to replace .ico files but i can't find where flash stores it's .ico file.

You are correct that the flash player community is read only as Flash player was discontinued in 2020. It isn't recommended to continue your use of Flash many years later as even at the time it posed a security risk. You should be uninstalling Flash Player from your system and consider a non-flash alternative for the work you had been doing.

No one ever believed that and even by the time Adobe actually followed through with their promise of discontinuing flash, the community had already replaced Adobe. Adobe was never needed for the survival of Flash and their attempt to kill it wasn't even registered in Internet history. The world kept moving and kept using flash despite Adobe. Just look at places like armour games and newgrounds for two shining examples of how little Adobe and their claim of "security risks" really mattered to the greater community. Flash is now and will always be the backbone of the Internet.

I thought Twitter/X had claimed the lion's share of delulus. Guess I was wrong. You win the Internet! 🤣

Flash Player is dead because web browsers stopped supporting the plugin that made it work. There's no going back now.

Since Adobe no longer supports Flash Player after December 31, 2020 and blocked Flash content from running in Flash Player beginning January 12, 2021, Adobe strongly recommends all users immediately uninstall Flash Player to help protect their systems.

Good luck.
