Windows 10 Edge: install Flash Player pop-up notification

Have tried extensively to get Flash to work on my DELL INSPIRION Windows 10.
Followed the Instructions to "Turn On", which it was already.
Whenever I land on a site that uses Flash, it tells me to Update & shows an Flash Update pop up, but it is signed with some other name.

Let me know if you need more info

thank you

    One... scammers have cloned and  modified Adobe pages, so NEVER download from a pop up, always go to Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions

    Two, you as a user may NOT update Flash in either Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer... Microsoft  has LOCKED both browsers, so only Microsoft  may issue an update

    Hi,

    Which browser are you using?

    Whenever I land on a site that uses Flash, it tells me to Update & shows an Flash Update pop up, but it is signed with some other name.

    Provide the exact link to a site that this is occurring on.

    Post a screenshot of the 'Flash Update pop-up' you are getting

    Thank you.
