I dunno what to suggest other than to disable updates through your registry and re-download a
version of flash for your desired browser (if you can even find one, you might check Adobe's
website, but I doubt it'll be there at this point...maybe on Megaupload or a similar file sharing
service)
I had a link with a how-to on disabling Windows update perminately through the registry, I'll see
if I can find it.

Here, you want "How to disable automatic updates using Registry"
https://www.windowscentral.com/how-stop-updates-installing-automatically-windows-10
Good luck on finding the last flash version, I don't know how to help you there.

Okay faggots. The last version of Flash Player that doesn't have the killswitch is 32.0.0.371.
Any version past that won't work January 12th.
You install 371, you disable automatic updates, and you're safe to continue using flash. The only
thing you'll have to worry about is the inevitability of your browser actively blocking the
plugin from running, and that's something that's already starting to happen with some of them.
And where do you get v32.0.0.371?

p_32.0.0.371_archive.zip
Right there.

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.
Also it's Merlin's Magical Wintergatan Wash

Goodbye flash, you one of the best things that was there for me during some hard times, used it
/f/ since 2015 but basically grew up on flash games as a kid, You will be missed, so long I'll
miss the times I had on this board, probably my first home board on 4chan. Goodbye..

I tried :( I don't have NPSWF or pepflashplayer in my files, only 2 of the files in the Sys32 and
SysWOW Flash folders had the hex string that had to be changed. I saved copies as .bak on my
desktop. Tried to paste into respective files as admin and it says access denied.
What do?

You need to set yourself as the owner of the files in question. Search 'windows change file
ownership' or something of the like, you'll find plenty of guides. After that, you can edit the
files right in their directory without having to copy them out (though I would anyway, just in
case).

This is why I've switched to the standalone player only. Modern browsers are all bloated trash
that lag, hog gigabytes of memory and STILL fucking have memory leaks out the ass in 2021.
