Unable to play any flash content in browser
I have cleared caches, uninstalled, reinstalled, searched for any adjustment I could think of that would allow the flash to play. Flash players have been reinstalled, java reinstalled. reboooted, rebooted,rebooted. Have turned off all security and it still will not load. Some games even indicate what version of flash is installed but all I get is a plain white screen where the game should be shown. Videos will not load

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>

That looks like problems with the Shockwave Flash plugin.
You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and hardware acceleration in Firefox and try this:
- make sure you have the latest Flash version:
http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html - check for updates for your graphics drive drivers
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration - disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Windows Vista and later)
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/adobe-flash-protected-mode-firefox - disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html - disable hardware acceleration in Firefox
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration

Problem is ONLY on the Firefox browser. Flash runs on other items such as video players outside the browser.

I"m totally confused at this point. I keep uninstalling and installing and I keep getting this.
Went back to Firefox 42, still not working,
Install an older version of Firefox {web link}
Fixed: Did a recovery on the machine, threw everything away, reinstalled Firefox and Flash before anything else and it works again. Thanks for taking the time to work with me. I had tried older versions of Firefox but that didn't worl.
