Question

how to enable Flash Player - Windows 10

[moderator: edited topic title to accurately reflect issue being reported]

i have windows 10.

i have flashplayer enabled in settings.

i have flashplayer enabled in manage add-ons.

the ONLY place that flashplayer is NOT enabled is any site that i go to that uses flashplayer which generates a popup asking i want to allow flashplayer ...

when i think of the ridiculous convoluted route necessary just to post this i think it more productive and efficient to disable and remove the feature as i am sure the inevitable answer from adobe will involve something akin to "this should fix it" or "this should enable it" but never revealing an alternative when it inevitablty does NOT fix or enable it.

Yes, it is absolutely ridiculous.  Maybe they will give us the option of paying to ask a question.  I bet that link would be easy to find.

I agree.  This isn't a technical issue for the browser.  There just appears to be no way to navigate to a place where I can ask a question.  No one seems to have the problem I have.  So if anyone can direct me as to where to simply post a question, that will be a start.

    I found out that you have to do a search BEFORE it will give you the

    link to ask a question.

    Assuming you're using Edge browser - see Troubleshooting Flash Player on Microsoft Edge for assistance.

    If you're suing a different browser, provide the information previously requested.

    this is simply to ASK A QUESTION on the forum!!!!

    Even technical support had no clue how to navigate this on your own web forum!!!!

    I use MAC high Sierra NOT microsoft

    HOW DO I SIMPLY TYPE A QUESTION (NOT search) into an Adobe forum?????

      <edit>
      Can't comment on other product forums, as product forum admin's can set up their forum's differently, but both Using Flash Player and Installing Flash Player are configured the same.  The question pod is listed first to give user's an opportunity to search the forums for their issue, in case it's been asked before.  The 'Click here to start a new discussion' link is listed below the search field, in both Flash Player forums.

      The 'Actions' menu in the upper right also has the ability to create a new discussion:

      To give you any useful advice, I'm going to need to know more about your computer and browser:

      I agree..I can't figure out how to ask a question yet ...it's awful.  No wonder I'm having issues with Adobe Flashplayer jif they can't put a simple link to ask a question.
