Adobe flash 20 keeps crashing firefox windows 10#

Question Google video conferencing (on Windows 10 laptop) Question Google Slides - any good web-based alternatives? Question Stuck with google previously syncs with my device I ended up uninstalling Bitdefender and it completely started working again, which is kind of weird.īut then Shockwave crashed and the YouTube thing started to happen again when I plugged in an external USB soundcard from Logitech g430.Īnd yes, I do need Shockwave in order to go on YouTube properly, and in order to watch videos on it. Are you sure the issue isn't related to something else? Using the same version of Chrome as you, I was able to access YouTube and play a video without issue-without having either Shockwave Flash or Adobe Flash installed. Both Mozilla and Google blocked Flash in the last few weeks as a result of multiple security issues they may have re-enabled it since, but the point remains-Flash, Java, and Shockwave are all outdated, potentially dangerous, and rarely used. It's become even more so in recent years. As to why you have noticed many people experiencing similar issues since July 10+, allow me to point you to this, and any number of similar articles: http /http /http /http /Flash is extremely vulnerable, always has been.

I don't know why you need Shockwave to go to YouTube, though. Most sites moved away from Shockwave years ago, and even Adobe Flash is quickly being phased out in favor of HTML5. NEED it? You really shouldn't 'need' it in most cases.

Okay, I tried Firefox, same thing! YouTube player would load but won't auto play! As of July 10+ many people are experiencing similar problems. So, I researched more, and now I'm noticing other people are beginning to get this problem. Disabled and deleted adblock, still no change with the YouTube player.Īnd don't bother telling me to disable Shockwave, since I NEED SHOCKWAVE in order to go on YouTube and other common websites.Īnd now, Google new version of mail won't even load properly and the pages become unresponsive! Awesome! *sarcasm* I posted a complaint to Google and their product forums, but I guess I'm hopping my way towards the Foxy browser. I don't have any extensions other than Adblock.

Obviously my Google Chrome is up to date.89 mĬlearly that didn't help at all since I updated it before I made this post. Seemed like that made my Shockwave plugin crash once again (I only had the YouTube problem) It seemed to do the trick last night but now the Shockwave plugin problem is at it again. No, I don't have 2 Shockwave Players located in plug-ins. Then, Shockwave started crashing multiple times and I was unable to go to ANY shockwave supported sites since the plugin is constantly crashing. I started researching about it, and no solution. Like, it would load, but it wouldn't automatically start playing. Okay so,I don't know WHAT'S going on with Chrome but since yesterday, my YouTube videos wouldn't play.
