JPEXS Free Flash Decompiler Issue Tracker

Adobe Flash reached EOL (End Of Life) by the end of 2020, since that, Adobe and even Microsoft did many things to disable Adobe Flash Player ActiveX installation in the Windows OS. I don't know what's the current way to properly enable it back (even older version) in Windows 10. I recommend using some older OS like Windows (XP?) in a Virtual machine, where installing the ActiveX is not a problem. In FFDec, a preferred way is to use our bundled renderer (= not using the setting you mentioned) and/or use the Run button with flash projector. Maybe other users can suggest a way to get the ActiveX running...

I have instructions for installing the ActiveX Flash Player here: https://nosamu.medium.com/how-to-reactivate-flash-based-games-and-screensavers-on-windows- 10-or-8-1-f9b0218a332c I'd recommend uninstalling whatever Flash Player version you already have first, then following the instructions in that article.

I digged into this a lot. It it possible to use them all. Standalone Projector (use v.32.0.0.464): - Adobe Flash Player 32.0.0.465 Projector Linux64.tar.gz - Adobe Flash Player 32.0.0.465 Projector Macintosh.dmg - Adobe Flash Player 32.0.0.465 Projector Windows.exe Note 1: These Standalones work without installation (portable) and don't have any time bomb logic. Just make sure you choose the "Debug" version, as the normal one does not work with Windows "Open With..."-feature (only the debug version plays them by double-click) You have just to google a bit to find their downloads. Installation of Flash Player: - Flash Player 32.0.0.465 ActiveX (Windows, Internet Explorer) Win XP,7 Setup.exe - Flash Player 32.0.0.371 PPAPI (Chrome, Opera) Setup.exe - Flash Player 32.0.0.371 NPAPI (Firefox, Safari) Setup.exe Note 1: 32.0.0.371 is the last official version without the time bomb logic (newer versions are manipulated by Adobe so they refuse to work after January, 2021). Note 2: To prevent the setup will cancel itself, set a compatible flag for "Windows 7" for Setup's install file before. Note 3: After installation, you have to import a working settings.sol in "%AppData%\Macromedia\... as the GUI for configuring local/global Flash settings only worked in Windows Vista/7 correctly (not in XP and not in 10/11 or later). Without having a proper configured settings.sol imported, it will never work. Browser Plugins: Oh, yes - its a real pain to get this embedded flash to work again. You need a really old browser (based on Firefox or Chrome), download the DLL and OCX files, place them in the plugins dir and then configure the browser settings to allow flash in every situation. Don't forget to set a proxy to 127.0.0.1 so the browser can't access the internet (or otherround). My recommendation: Use browser "MyPal" (the old one). Plus, you have to import a working settings.sol in "%AppData%\Macromedia\... as the GUI for configuring local/global Flash settings only worked in Windows Vista/7 correctly (not in XP and not in 10/11 or later). The game archive initiative "Flashpoint" uses two of these methods: the standalone projector and the embedded browser plugins. But unfortunately, their GUI only supports the latest Windows OS (if you do it by yourself, it will work on Windows XP and higher). Without having a proper configured settings.sol imported, it will never work.
