"For example many companies like wacom,phillips has video tutorials that need flash to open.Is there any solution?"

 

Adobe announced Flash Player's end-of-life in July 2017 giving content creators, programmers, developers, IT experts, etc over 3 years remove Flash Player dependencies from their products. All modern browsers provide the capabilities necessary to do this in JavaScript.  This is an investment and prioritization choice, not a technical limitation. 

  

For reference:

 

Browser support information:

  • Apple Safari - Flash Player support removed in Safari 14, released Sept 16, 2020
  • Google Chrome - Flash Player support removed in Chrome 88, released Jan 19, 2021
  • Firefox - Flash Player support removed in Firefox 85, released on Jan 26, 2021.
    • Firefox ESR 78 will support Flash Player for the time being, assuming the Flash Player NPAPI plugin is already installed on the system as it’s no longer available for download.
  • Microsoft Edge - Flash Player support removed in Edge 88, released Jan 15, 2021

    Harman is for Enterprise solutions not individual users.
