Today’s the day – Flash EOL has arrived
Posted on December 30, 2020 at 18:02 CST by Kirsty • Comment in the ForumsToday’s the day – Flash EOL has arrived
Back in 2017, Adobe announced it was “planning to end-of-life Flash”. Yes, this has been posted about before… Well, the time has now come. Pop-ups have been seen in those machines still using it, for a bit now.
If you have questions about what happens next, Adobe has a page full of questions and answers here.
If you’re looking for articles on how to uninstall, check out Martin Brinkmann’s ghacks post.
(and yes, only half the world is having New Year’s Eve already – Happy New Year to all)
