I am a Realtor in Charlotte, NC. I am using an older Win XP-32 computer and Chrome. I went to access my Multiple Listing Service and the data for my Listings would not display. I reviewed the Plug-Ins that I have been running forever (not updated) and one Plug-In says, “Adobe Flash Player - Version: 22.0.0.209 Download Critical Security Update Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0”
Your help is very much appreciated!!

Hi Scott,
Latest version of Adobe Flash Player released today is 27.0.0.183. 22.0.0.209 is an old version and we do not recommend using such old versions of Flash Player. As per my understanding, XP-32 is not SP3 version. XP versions prior to SP3 do not support sha256 certificates, which Flash Player uses. You can try downloading the offline installers and see if it works for you from Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows 7 and earlier support page.
For Chrome, Flash Player comes installed with Chrome and all Flash Player updates are pushed by Google as part of Chrome updates. Since Google stopped supporting Chrome on XP, you will not be able to update the same. You can use PPAPI Flash Player(for Chromium browsers) available on supoort page.
Thanks!

Hello Ridhijain!
Thank you very much for your reply! My version of XP-32 is SP3; and until yesterday, I had no issues w/ my plug-in being “out of date”. My version of Chrome is also old 49.0.2623.112 m . Since I am using SP3, can you recommend a flash plug-in that will work? I am assuming from your reply that I cannot use the old version (22.0.0.209) because of security issues(?). Can I use the newer version (27.0.0.183) ? If yes, how can I load 27.0.0.183 to my computer? From the Adobe website?
You mentioned that I can use a “PPAPI Flash Player(for Chromium browsers)” – can I get this from the Adobe website? Will it install to the correct location in my OS?
Thank you again for your help & patience. I am sorry I am asking so many questions!
Peace!

Greetings M Vargas! Thank you for your reply. You are right, my current system is very old. I do not do any Banking on this computer or use a Contract software (such as Dotloop or Docusign). I do access YouTube videos and use Outlook for emails, but that is about it. Can I install a plug-in to the right location that can be utilized with my XP-32 SP3? I will certainly consider migrating to a modern system. Thank you for your help! Peace! Scott -Charlotte, NC

See comment #3 at cannot update Flash, Chrome on WinXP
This is a non-supported hack. It may or may not work.
