THIS IS THE LAST UPDATE FROM ME




It has been nice journey, but we knew this time had to come soon or later (how dramatic!! )

In the past I was able to bypass the operative system requirements (that is the reason I was posting these standalone Flash Player dlls), but since the last version, starting with the IE version of the plugin, the things became worst and, with this version, yes or yes, I need a higher OS version to just run the installer. This means that I need to use a virtual machine to "extract" the dll and the whole process takes about half an hour thanks to my humble PC.

That's not the only reason. Since a few months back (why so long is another personal history) I'm looking forward on moving, without looking back (I hope not to eat my words on this), to Linux and would be a waste of time to spend more time to solve these Windows versions annoyances.

But, don't be sad, Flash won't be among us to much (Firefox will drop support for NP plugins from version 53 (being 52 the latest with support according to some mailing list messages), and at their update rate, that will be so near in time) so we won't lose too much on this.

If you fear about security holes, just use FlashBlock. It is what I do. That saves a lot of threats.

Said that, here you have 18.0.0.360 ESR:


NPSWF32_18_0_0_360.7z (ESR)

(What would be my posts without edits )

Hi, JohnHell,

Give me the link of the installer.

I think there is no problem to extract it under Linux, and no need to launch the installer.

If I success (I think), I'll give you the way I use ...

Mozilla's announcement in October of 2015 stated that they would continue to support the Flash plugin even after they stop supporting the rest of them. Have they changed their minds since then? It would seem too early for them to drop the Flash plugin, considering the fact that so many sites still use Flash for videos. At any rate, this sounds like a good reason for Firefox users to stop updating their browsers!

You have it here:
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
(Finally, they decided to decommiss it the 30th of June)

But I don't want a method. I desist. I "enlarged" the life of Windows 2000 too much.


@Yogi something else. None of the mainstream. It is some that I tried years ago based on Slack, but as I'm not sure if that will be final, I'm not going to say this or this other because maybe I end in one of the most known. Let's say just GNU/Linux.


@foliator, they don't have an exact date, but, after some people insisted, they had to say that they will be 52, more or less.

Thanks. Most of the discussions there are way over my head, but it looks like Mozilla is trying to find a way to continue supporting Flash. Maybe they should develop a substitute player that is Flash-compatible and incorporate that in the browser, like what they did with their built-in PDF reader. The latter isn't too bad, but kind of slow compared with the conventional browser plugins for reading PDFs. I currently use Sumatra PDF's plugin. Of course, what do I know? I'm only a layman in these matters. smiling smiley

Silverlight has been mentioned in this connection, too, and Netflix refuses to play videos without it, at least here in Canada.

Presently it's Ubuntu 12.04, but it's not specific to ubuntu, I think.

The program used is file-roller, the archive manager, which is probably not specific to Ubuntu or Debian.

It allows to open exefiles as archives.

It works nicelly, for example with K-meleon Setup, and a lot of executables.
Unfortunatelly, if it opens the setup here, I don't find the dll. I just find some files in the sub-folder .rsc/RCDATA (204 or 206 7,7Mo or 9,7 Mo) which are probably parts of a dll, and are réarranged by the setup.

So, it's not good to keep correctly the dll sad smiley

Sorry for the noise...

I hope too that a free alternative of flashplayer will be avalaible ...

What Siria has said, Jujuland.

These installers reconstruct themselves after next, next, next. I already tried things with similar installers without success.

Nice protection, anyway, but damn annoying

A decent free alternative would be indeed fine.
ATM flash has the better quality compared to HTML5. Drawback are the several security issues with flash. Most of those security issues could have been mitigated if webmasters wouldn't embed flash via scripting which is the attack vector number one. However collecting user data is more important than security - for site owners at least since collected data can be monetized.
HTML5 vids are also embedded via scripting for the same reason exposing users to unnecessary risks.

If the use of the ESR version of flash isn't mandatory, you can download the extracted .dll from here.
It is the unhexed .dll but spares you at least from the hassle of extracting.

Moving to Linux doesn't mean abandon K-meleon or forum. I'll be like Jujuland.

Under Wine, true, but I'll use.

Regardless of what said rodocop here, I don't have problems in use Wine, as transition, or as complement. (Lets talk in that thread the Windows/Windows 10/Linux things).

Anyway, it is a long run, I'm not going to switch today or tomorrow.

Thank you again, working with the dll instead of the whole plugin under K-Meleon is somehow better, than working with the installed plugin. Under Firefox the installed plugin works good.
As I have the plugin installed for Firefox, I searched if I have the dll file in the flash folder and yes, the dll file is there.
So, if anyone needs the dll file, I have it here and could share it - just need a space to upload the file.
The version I have is: NPSWF32_22_0_0_192.dll

NPSWF32_18.0.0.366-ESR

For those who need the unhexed ESR flavor:
http://effect8.ru/soft/media/adobe-flash-player-portable.html

I assume that plugin.vch is for DRM. You can skip that file.
NPSWF32.dll is clean, tested myself.

My curiosity to see if the new installer runs drove me to...

I think Adobe knew I quit and they quit as well tongue sticking out smiley (with the ESR).

Looks like they release more security bug/security fixes than improvements and they think that new features don't break systems stability compared to release an ESR, so they quit releasing it.

Very logical.

Extended Support Release - Flash Player 18.0.0.366 (Win & Mac)

stop_sign
ATTENTION: Important Changes to Extended Support Release

The Extended Support Release was originally created to help minimize the time IT administrators spend certifying a new Flash Player release, by restricting the number of changes introduced in a given release to only security changes and critical functional fixes. At the time, functional changes far outweighed the number of security fixes included with each release of Flash Player. In the modern security landscape; however, the opposite is true and the combination of proactive and responsive security mitigations far outweigh functional changes. In practice, the ESR no longer insulates IT organizations from the vast majority of changes included in the standard Flash Player release, providing little relief in terms of reduced functional risk. As a result, we have decided to discontinue the ESR branch and instead focus solely on the standard release. Focusing on the standard release allows us to be more agile in response scenarios, and to focus more deeply on both testing and new security engineering efforts moving forward.

To permit organizations sufficient time for testing and certification, the ESR will be maintained and updated until October 11, 2016, after which point organizations will need to transition to the standard release.

Some installers are in fact just managed self-extracting executable archives - so they are handled this way by archive-managers.

But the classic windows installer (I don't mean .msi) isn't a plain common archive. It's that strange structure wirh RCDATA etc...

Well I guess we all knew this was coming ... so my question is ... where's a good place to get the new flash versions in the future?

The flash player download listed now is 192 MB but then it changes to 20.33 MB. I always downloaded and saved the flash download before ... both for IE and K-Meleon. I like to install it myself for IE 8 and I have two older computers that I can update quickly with a saved download.

I still have the current ESR version on my computer ... that was supposed to go away in October and then I was going to switch to the standard version.

For now I may just leave everything as is and worry about a newer version next year.

Perhaps by that time there will some places to download "just what you want or need".

Maybe others have some ideas or input.

Yogi ... OK, I forgot what you had posted earlier further up the page. Looking at all the links ... not sure exactly what link I might need.

For K-Meleon ... I guess this link:

NPAPI

NPSWF32 23.0.0.162 | for Firefox 7z ...

and for IE 8 maybe this link ... • Архив 23.0.0.162 Setup

• Архив Setup
