I am a gay retard who doesn't know how to open flash files while browsing /f/ anymore since adobe
killed it. I can still open them with my third party software. How do I open flash files while
browsing here?

Install an older version of the plugin.
Okay faggots. Here's what you need to know.
Adobe Flash Player browser plugins versions AFTER v32.0.0.371 have a killswitch that will
activate January 12th 2020. After this date, the Flash Player plugin will actively prevent itself
from playing SWF files in your browser.
However, there is a way around this.
Below is a download link to a combined archive of several different 32.0.0.371 installers. Pick
the one you need and install it, then go into Flash's settings and disable automatic updates.
Congratulations, you can now continue using the Flash Player plugin to watch Flash files on your
web browser.

p_32.0.0.371_archive.zip
You'll need to use an offline installer. Otherwise it'll outright tell you you're not installing
the latest version and cancel. For most Windows users that will be "flashplayer32_0r0_37
1_win.msi" I'm afraid I can't help Mac or Linux users, but they probably already know what
they're doing anyway.
There are, of course, alternatives. Flash's own standalone projectors do not have the killswitch.
You can download SWFs and run them in these projectors directly off your hard drive. You can set
up file associations to have the SWFs automatically open in the projector. You can also put in an
URL to run SWFs directly from the internet without having to download.
It can be found in the above URL as files with "_sa" in the filename. Windows Example:
flashplayer32_0r0_371_win_sa.exe
There's also Ruffle, which is still in development, and there's even a version that doesn't
require you to install any browser plugins but but is run on-demand from sites that implement it,
but it isn't quite finished yet and some flashes will break.
Some Flash games are published as standalone projectors and are safe from the killswitch.

On modern versions of flash projector you can also open directly from the .swf URL.

Maybe you need to downgrade the ActiveX version of flash instead of the plugins, I doubt windows
will like that so you may be better off trying this.
How to defuse the timebomb in flash
Use a hex editor to search for the hex string:
00 00 40 46 3E 6F 77 42
And replace it with:
00 00 00 00 00 00 F8 7F
THE SIX FILES YOU NEED TO CHANGE ON WINDOWS ARE IN THE FOLLOWING TWO DIRECTORIES:
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash (32-bit flash on 64-bit only)
FILENAMES:
Flash32_32_0_0_###.ocx (ActiveX: IE / IrfanView version)
Flash64_32_0_0_###.ocx (ActiveX: IE / IrfanView version)
NPSWF32_32_0_0_###.dll (NPAPI: Firefox / Palemoon version)
pepflashplayer32_32_0_0_###.dll (PPAPI: Chrome/Chromium/360/Edge version)
OCX files are write-protected so you will need to rename and copy, or take ownership of them as
required.

I read that too, who cares though this one just works.

string but there was the edited defused string so idk what to think
