What needs to be done to get the ball rolling on this? To actually get Microsoft to support the debugger version properly in IE. This is holding us back from a company-wide Windows 10 release. We've been waiting 18 months and nothing. I and a few other developers have implemented this hack to be able to work in Windows 10. It has got to the point where we will be writing an automated deployment of this hack/bodge to developers machines and roll out Window 10. A sad state really that our only option is to go with a complete and utter hack!

Kinda disappointing we are 8 months on and still no debugging capability in IE on Windows 10. This is pretty fundamental stuff, develop Flash apps, need debugging capabilities. Is there any timeline on resolution for this? Any plans, any ideas, progress, anything?! It is now the single issue stopping our company from moving our developers to Windows 10. Nearly ALL our client base (the NHS) use IE, We can't be developing and resolving issues that need debugging in Firefox (the only current option), we need to be running what the client is running. I just have to reiterate the utter frustration we are experiencing that 2 giants like Microsoft and Adobe can't get their act together and get this totally basic and fundamental requirement sorted!

In an ideal world we could dictate that. However, our clients (for this specific application) are all the NHS trusts in the UK of which there are ALOT. We have no ability to get them on to the latest versions of Windows or IE and certainly not together. They are a very slow and lumbering beast when it comes to IT. And, we are not talking about legacy Windows 7 OS environments here, we are talking hundreds of thousands of PCs still running as low as Windows XP. Last year was a milestone in that we no longer had to support IE6! Each organisation is totally different too, some have a set of hardware and software that is certified and will not move up to newer versions unless it goes through some sort of certification. We had a lot of trouble when the certified version of IE was 6 (as we all know that was a terrible version!!!). I totally understand this mentality though, they simply cannot risk things going wrong when a new update is automatically taken and breaks everything. People's lives are at risk here. Not all of them are like this though and some can be keen to take newer updates for the exact reasons you have pointed out. We do have an opportunity to move them up to a newer version of FlashPlayer with our next release though. Inline with your comments, I have proven that IE7 works with FlashPlayer 15.0.0 (even though the release notes say the minimum is IE8). So I am tempted to say the minimum version supported is 15.0.0 from our next release.

We develop an enterprise Flex application and our clients are currently using FlashPlayer 11.1. We want to support the native right-click customisation functionality introduced in 11.2 but we also have a requirement to support IE7. Looking through the release notes for each version, when I look at 11.2 and 11.3 I see a nice little system requirements section listing browser requirements (lovely). From 11.4 onwards the release notes system requirements section just has a link to the latest requirements which is of absolutely no use to me as I really don't need that information! From the latest release notes I see IE8 as a minimum browser requirement. What was the last FlashPlayer version supported by IE7?
