I am trying to play games which say Flash Player needs to be updated, but it is an integral part of Windows 10. I have carried out the steps to check (add-ons and ActiveX) and all seems OK but it still does not work. This has only happened in the last day or so - has something changed?
First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 and Edge introduce a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.
Also, it sounds like perhaps you also have JavaScript disabled. Are you using any ad-blockers or anti-tracking plugins? Do you have IE in a non-default security configuration?
