I am sick and tired of your Firefox not supporting Adobe Flash player. Windows explorer no problem it works fine. All of your support statements tell me to reinstall and I've tried that more than once and nothing improves! It is slowing up my computer, and I have a windows folder with 4.8Mb of auto generated crash messages!

To be fair, Firefox has and continues to support Adobe Flash Player. From what I've been seeing, I think there may be a problem with the current version of Flash Player because I find similar problems on multiple web browsers.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)

I have the current version installed 16,0,0,235 for Windows 8. that is the problem, there is no help after you reinstall and the problem still exists. There are hundreds of complaints about this on this message board!
