Los sitios Web que todavía soportan el flash parecen no funcionar en Chrome, el motivo es que la mayoría de los browsers han comenzado a inhabilitar el Flash por defecto y terminarán el soporte para el Flash en los próximos meses. El mismo Adobe anunció que terminará absolutamente el soporte para su plugin de Flash para el 2020. Y el motivo detrás de esto es obvia puesto que muchos navegadores han comenzado a boicotear el plugin de Flash debido a problemas de seguridad y otros, por lo que el volumen de un número de usuarios ha disminuido drásticamente.

No obstante, si eres Username de Chrome, observarás que Google no da prioridad al contents y a los sitios web basados en Flash debido a la función de seguridad integrada de Chrome. De manera predeterminada, Chrome le pide que no utilice sitios web basados en Flash. No obstante, si las circunstancias exigen que utilices Flash para algún sitio web específico, ¿qué harías? La buena noticia es que puedes habilitar Flash para determinados sitios web usando el browser Chrome. Es por ello que, en esta guía hablaremos de cómo habilitar Flash para determinados sitios web y de las distintas soluciones para llevar adelante esta tarea.

Enable Flash for specific websites in Chrome

Make sure to create a restore point in case something goes wrong.

In the latest updates, Google Chrome has set only "Ask first" as the recommended option to run any Flash-based content. Let's find out what we can do to enable flash for certain websites in chrome.

Now, starting with Chrome 76, the Flash is locked by default. Even though, you can still enable it but in that case, Chrome will show a notification about the end of Flash support.

Method 1: Enable Flash in Chrome using settings

The first solution we can adopt is to make changes to the browser settings.

1.Abre Google Chrome y posteriormente navega a la próxima Url in the address bar:

chrome: // settings / content / flash

2. Make sure to activate the “Ask first (recommended)” toggle to activate Adobe Flash Player in Chrome.

3.In case you need to disable Adobe Flash Player in Chrome, basically turn off the toggle above.

4. That's it, every time you browse any website that works in flash, it will ask you to open that website in the Chrome browser.

Method 2: Use Site Settings to Activate Flash

1.Open the particular website on Chrome that required access to Flash.

2.Now, from the left side of the address bar, click on the little icon (security icon).

That is, you have allowed this website to work with Flash content in Chrome. This method will possibly work for you to access any Flash-based content in your browser. Check out this guide if you want to enable Flash in any other web browser other than Chrome.

How to add and block websites for Flash-based content

As mentioned in the second method, you can easily allow multiple websites in Chrome to run Flash-based content. All websites will be added directly to the Allow section in the Flash settings of the Chrome browser. And in the same way, you can block any number of websites using the block list.

You can easily check which websites are on the allowed list and which ones are on the blocked list. You just have to navigate to the following address:

chrome: // settings / content / flash

Method 3: Check and update the version of Adobe Flash Player

Sometimes enabling Flash basically doesn't work and despite this you won't be able to access Flash-based content in the Chrome browser. In such cases, you will need to update the version of Adobe Flash Player. In this way, you must make sure that your browser has the latest version of Flash Player.

1. Type chrome: // components / in the Chrome address bar.

2. Scroll down to "Adobe Flash Player" and you will see the latest version of Adobe Flash Player that you have installed.

3.If you do not have the latest version, then you must click on the button «Check For Update».

Once the Adobe Flash Player is updated, your browser will work properly to run the Flash-based content.

Method 4: Install or reinstall Adobe Flash

If the Flash Player doesn't work, or you still can't open Flash-based content, another way to solve this problem is to install or reinstall Adobe Flash Player on your system.

1.Escriba https://adobe.com/go/chrome en la barra de direcciones de su navegador.

2.Here you must select the operating system and the browser for which you intend to download Flash Player.
