Moving ourselves towards the eventual death of the Flash Player in 2021, Microsoft has removed it from Windows 10 during a recent update and prevents it from being installed again. However, the update only removes the Adobe Flash Player that comes bundled with Windows 10 and doesn't affect any standalone versions you’ve installed yourself.
As announced earlier by Adobe , Flash Player will officially pack up everywhere during December this year and can receive no further updates. the newest version of Microsoft Edge Chromium will lose support for Adobe Flash in January 2021.This was announced way before but this certain removal from windows 10 was not expected at all.
These were the comments of Microsoft on removal of Adobe Flash Player:
"We are releasing this removal update beforehand of end of support to assist customers test and validate their environments for any impact which may occur by the removal of Adobe Flash Player."
In September, Microsoft announced that a Flash removal tool will become an optional feature in Windows Update in early 2021 and this is able to become a recommended update a couple of months later. By summer 2021, Microsoft will start removing Flash-related developer frameworks and user interfaces from the legacy Edge.
This will be done through multiple updates on different versions of Windows including 10 and 8 in umcomming days.
On the opposite hand, Google is ending support for Flash in Chrome in December 2020, and Adobe itself will finish it off by the top of the year.
We will miss you..... Unappreciated effort comming to an end.
