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.

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.

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.

there's no problem using flash locally with your own files

Do you know the file path for that?

that file should have an icon


The .exe file does but none of the .swf files elsewhere on my computer do. They just show up like the screenshot i posted.
