However, for security reasons, the default setting for Flash is ‘disabled’. Support for Adobe Flash ends in December 2020. Since Adobe no longer supports Flash Player after Decemand blocked Flash content from running in Flash Player beginning January 12, 2021, Adobe strongly recommends all users immediately uninstall Flash Player to help protect their systems. Visit the Chrome blog Adobe Flash Player EOL General Information Page. So if you need to use Flash today, having an Adobe Flash Player Chrome plugin is probably your best bet.

Just make sure to stop your Google Chrome from updating to keep using Flash past 2020 and install a malware removal app like CleanMyMac X and a data recovery software like Disk Drill beforehand, just in case.
