my computer run under windows xp. i know right ... So there is no way for me to update the flash plugin anymore. While the latest upgrade can't be install on xp.

So firefox ask me time after time , if i want to activate the flash plugin . And kindly the message says something like do you want to activate the plugin for a single experience or do you want the flash plugin to always be activated on this website . maybe the question is even more focus like do you want the flash plugin to be activated for the first half of the page you are on ( no im kidding, Am i?)

Ok so i always hit the button saying always. But the always button never works. when i go back to a web site even the one i visit every days after a little while the same annoying question come back.

SO here is my statement i dont care, I really dont care to see firefox crash because of the flash plugin. i dont give a damn about it. i would even say that computer or any software crashing remind me of my youth . i will even go further crashing makes Machine more human . right? so why cant have i the flash plugin working if i want to . why can't i decide what plugin i want to run. i'm using it. Not you out there. Once i'm aware of the possible consequence of this use why won't i be able to decide what to do ? 

 SO WHERE CAN I ALLOW THE FLASH PLUGIN TO RUN ONCE AND FOR ALL?

Having more than one version of a program may cause issues. You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.

Flash: Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows Uninstall Flash Player | Mac

Then reinstall the latest version.

Flash Player Version 20.0.0.267
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html Note: Windows users should download the ‘’’active_x’’’ for “Internet Explorer,” and the ‘’’plugin’’’ for “Plugin-based browsers” (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the ’’’plugin’’’ only. Not the ’’’active_x’’’.

Adobe still offers Flash 18.0.0.268 as its extended support release further down
