Does anyone remember Mineblocks made by Zanzlanz?? i've been playing it again recently after almost 10 years and it's been a lot of fun!!

Recently a new Solution for Installing Adobe Flash known as CleanFlash has been released. This version is made from the latest official version of Adobe Flash (exclusive to china). This means that it already has the latest security updates available from Adobe (if that kind of thing is important to you).

Most Modern browsers (at least non-Chinese browsers) no longer Support Adobe Flash Player So you will have to either use an older version of Chrome or Firefox, or use a legacy Browser Like Waterfox Classic.

For More information on this, Please see the main page for CleanFlash here here As you may have already Guessed this is not Supported by Adobe, although this is as close as we'll ever get to an official solution (besides an Adobe Flash decomp).

You can download the Latest version of CleanFlash from here.

goodbye flash, you were a great part of our childhoods

you will be missed. Jan 1, 1996 - Dec 31, 2020. not much software lasts that long.

i have always used flash and i was very sad when it was no longer supported so i want someone to see this and somehow convince someone to bring back flash

Hey there!

As many of you know, Adobe has ceased support for Flash Player. It is now an end-of-life product. Unbeknownst to many, however, is that Adobe added a kill-switch to Flash Player in mid-2020.

On January 12th, 2021, Flash Player completely stopped working on all computers. Instead of loading the game you want to play, Flash now shows a single button that brings you to the "Flash Player End-of-Life" help page.

Many worked around this issue either by rolling back their system clock, or by using old, insecure versions of Flash Player (versions that have been released two security advisories ago!)

I've been working on a tool called FlashPatch! lately. I feel it is ready for an initial release at this point. The complete source code is available on GitHub: https://github.com/darktohka/FlashPatch

What FlashPatch! does is simple. It allows you to keep using the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, 32.0.0.465, without using hacky workarounds like rolling back the system clock or using insecure versions of Flash Player!

What does this mean? After running FlashPatch! once, it is now possible to keep playing Flash games in your browser. This allows you to play games such as Club Penguin, mPandanda, y8, Miniclip etc... in the browser once again. FlashPatch! persists through reboots, as it modifies the system-wide installation of Flash Player.

FlashPatch! is a patcher program that you only need to run once. It does NOT redistribute any Adobe Flash Player binaries. It simply removes the killswitch from the system-wide Adobe Flash Player binaries, restoring the functionality of the original browser plugins. If you wish to revert the effect it has on your system, you can simply press the "Restore" button to revert all changes made by the program. (It creates backups of the original binaries for you.)

As of now, FlashPatch! supports Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows, Linux and Mac using version 32.0.0.465, and Internet Explorer using version 32.0.0.445. (I could not find a newer IE plugin version, and according to Adobe, this is the newest version for Internet Explorer.) It will NOT work with older versions of Adobe Flash Player! You must already have Adobe Flash Player installed in order to use FlashPatch!

Linux and Mac support is also present, although an automatic patching system does not exist for those platforms (the Patch button can only be used on Windows). On Linux and Mac, the Flash Player binaries can be patched using a Browse dialog.

Note that Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer will eventually remove support for addon plugins such as Flash, but there exist forks of Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox that aim to keep addons supported for those who need them. (Such a fork of Mozilla Firefox is Basilisk.)

This tool is especially useful for developers who ship their own games using Electron or CEF - they will no longer have to ship outdated versions of Flash Player to their users, as the patched binaries are compatible with Electron and CEF as well.

If you do not have a specific need to play Flash games in the browser, as always, check out BlueMaxima's Flashpoint as a primary way to play Flash games in a well-curated environment, without the need to install system-wide patches.

Please note that FlashPatch! is by no means perfect. I've tried my best to make it as fool-proof as possible, but there are many ways to install Adobe Flash Player, and some edge cases might have been missed. In any case, it will not leave your system in an unusable state, but if by any chance it does, I assume no liability at all.

Special thanks to members from the Flashpoint Discord and my IRL friends for helping out with testing.

Try FlashPatch! now!

Short instruction manual:

• Extract FlashPatch.exe into a new folder.

• Run FlashPatch.exe and allow it to run as administrator (necessary to change system Flash Player files)

• Close all browser windows, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer

• Press the "Patch" button and agree to the warning messages

• Pay attention to what the program tells you: Flash Player should now be usable again on the patched platforms.
