Why does shockwave flash keep crashing?
I have same problem with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge.
Usually within minutes of opening my browser shockwave flash regularly crashes and I'm asked whether I want to continue or stop the plug-in.
Will this ever be really fixed? I've used so called work arounds but they are not the answer and don't usually work that well and are cumbersome.
