Adobe flash player is a multiplatform client runtime. Adobe flash player must be installed to view and interact with SWF content. The Adobe Flash player is available in different languages.

To unlock your adobe flash player from google follow these simple short steps.

1. Open your menu bar in chrome, scroll down to select settings, scroll to the bottom of the page, and select advanced.

2. Expand your site settings from within the privacy and security section.

3. You will see a list of permission in your recent chrome update. The update might have blocked your Adobe flash player. Click on enable to allow adobe flash player to run again.

From the last update of Chrome, one is now able to use the Adobe flash player. To unlock it easily the first step is to actually open the menu in google chrome after which you would select the settings option then you would scroll to the bottom of the page and select site settings.

After this has been done, the next thing is to expand the site settings from inside the security and privacy section, where you will see in the list of the permissions there that a recent update to the google chrome defaulted it to `blocked.’

If it is blocked, what to do is to enable the flash content again, and so there you have unlocked the adobe flash player easily and successfully. This process is actually a temporary measure because the adobe is moving towards the implementation of the end of life of flash in the year 2020.

Though support for Adobe Flash ends in December 2020, if a person needs to unblock the flash player, they can follow these steps to do so.

• Open the Chrome Browser.

• Click the three dots at the top, the right side of the browser.

• From the drop-down, click Settings.

• Scroll down the settings page and click Advanced.

• Then, click Content Settings

• Find and click Flash.

• Beside "Ask First," change the switch from Gray to Blue. This will ensure that the browser will ask about an Adobe Flash popup.
• Under "Unblock" if a site is shown, remove it.
