If you’re still running it, uninstall Flash Player now
Adobe has confirmed that it will no longer be supporting the software after December 31 2020, and will actively block Flash content from running inside Flash Player from January 12 2021.
In the company’s own words it “strongly recommends all users immediately uninstall Flash Player to protect their systems.”
Anyone who is still running Flash Player can expect to start seeing notifications pop-up on their screen that the software’s death is just days away and that they should uninstall the software.
Flash’s demise shouldn’t be a shock, it’s been on the cards for years. And it’s not just Adobe which has been working hard to kill it off in a graceful fashion. The likes of Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Mozilla stopped Flash from playing in their browsers years ago, and have committed to excising any remaining Flash-related code entirely by the end of 2020.
