I get the notice about flash player ending. The information box wants to know if I want to remove it now. I just want to know if removing flash player would affect my photography software programs? If so, what should I do about it?

Remove it.  After Dec 31st, Flash Player is dead anyway.  Creative Cloud photo apps (Photoshop, Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, etc...) DO NOT require Flash Player. But if you have other apps that require Flash Player, suggest you replace them now with ones that don't.

You're welcome.

Same answer. Websites, games and other Flash-based apps relying on Adobe Flash Player will be unusable unless they are converted to other technologies before Dec 31st.   For older apps, that's unlikely but if you're in doubt, ask the developer.
