How to enter the settings of an adobe flash player. Local setting of Flash Player in Yandex browser. Setting up automatic launch of Flash Player for Opera

Almost every user has come across a program called Adobe Flash Player. How do I enable it? What is required for this? How important is this program in general? Why is it needed? The answers to all these questions will be given below. In fact, now it is difficult to imagine a PC user who has never worked with "Adobe Flash Player". Why?

Description and getting started

The point is that this application is a kind of graphic module. It allows browsers to work with graphics. With it, you can watch videos, pictures, listen to music, play games and run applications online. Every computer must have an Adobe Flash Player. How do I enable it?

First you need to install this application. By default, it is not available on any computer or browser. Therefore, you will have to:

  1. Go to the official page "Adobe Flash Player".
  2. Go to the "Downloads" section.
  3. Select the latest program update for your operating system.
  4. Download the installation file to your PC and then run it. It is recommended to close the browser during initialization.
  5. Follow the instructions in the installer to complete the installation procedure for Adobe Flash Player. How do I enable it after that? Usually a simple browser restart is sufficient.

Only sometimes this technique doesn't work. Due to system crashes or incorrect operation of the browser, the application under study is disabled. It has to be activated manually. How?

Opera

It all depends on what kind of browser a person is using. Several leaders will be discussed next. Let's start with the Opera. Regardless of the operating system, the user will have to adhere to a specific algorithm of actions.

The quickest solution is the following instruction:

  1. Open "Opera".
  2. Write opera: // plugins in the address bar. After that, it's easy to enable Adobe Flash Player.
  3. A menu with installed plugins will appear. You need to find there the previously mentioned program.
  4. Click on the Enable button.

If the plug-in is not in the specified window, it will have to be installed according to the previously suggested scheme. You can visit the "Plugins" section in Opera by opening the "Options" menu and selecting the appropriate line.

Work in Yandex.Browser

The next browser we plan to work with is Yandex. This is a relatively new application that has won the hearts of many users. How do I get Flash Player to work here?

In general, the algorithm of actions will not change. It is necessary:

  1. Open Yandex.Browser. It is recommended that you close all open tabs before starting the process.
  2. Enter browser: // plugins in the line at the top of the screen. After that, it's easier to enable Adobe Flash Player than it seems.
  3. Find the required program in the list that appears.
  4. Click on "On" in the appropriate window.

Nothing else is needed. You can bring your idea to life by going to the "Add-ons" - "Plugins" section. There will be a corresponding attachment.

Google chrome

The next browser is Google. It is one of the most popular of all Internet applications. Need to get started with Adobe Flash Player? How do I enable it?

Required:

  1. Launch Google Chrome on your computer.
  2. Print chrome: plugins in the address bar. Press "Enter" to go to the corresponding menu item.
  3. Click on the "Enable" button in the Adobe Flash Player window.
  4. Check the box next to "Always allow". This will keep the application running continuously.

The above examples indicate that with all browsers, the process of enabling "Flash Player" is approximately the same. It is enough to visit the "Plugins" menu item, having previously installed the application on your PC.

Mozilla firefox

Finally, let's look at working with another popular browser - Mozilla FireFox. What to do with this application?

  • Launch Mozilla.
  • Go to "Tools" - "Add-ons".
  • Open "Plugins".
  • Find in the corresponding field "Adobe Flash Player". Click on Enable at the bottom of this window.

After that, Adobe Flash Player is activated. How to enable this program in a particular browser? Now you know the answer to this question.

Despite the growing popularity of HTML5 and the ability to play video and audio, Flash Player is used on websites very often. Movie players, browser games and applications, webcam broadcasting through a browser - all this is done thanks to Adobe Flash. This article will discuss how to configure Flash Player to work correctly in the Yandex browser.

Conventionally, the entire setting can be divided into 2 parts. The first part - global - guarantees the correct operation of the player in the browser. Usually, there is no need to do this - everything just works. The second part is fine-tuning Flash for a specific application. For example, adjust the sound, choose a microphone and webcam, specify the amount of resources that the player can take.

The whole point of the global setting comes down to eliminating conflicts between the two versions of the Flash player. The fact is that many users have a separate Flash module installed in the operating room. But the Yandex browser has its own built-in player and the same functionality.

By default, both versions work, which can lead to conflicts during movie playback or browser games. Often this problem occurs for those users who use the Mozilla Firefox browser. It does not have a "native" player, so it suggests installing a system module common to all programs.

Elimination of conflicts of different versions

In order to resolve the conflict, users need to open the advanced settings of the browser. For security reasons, this cannot be done through the control panel. You must use a special command for the address bar. Follow the instructions provided:

Then restart your browser. Now you have only one version of the Flash player running, and no conflicts should arise.

Flash Player Settings Manager

The settings of the parameters of the player itself can be changed both for one site and for all programs as a whole. General configuration is carried out through the Abode manager in the control panel:

  1. Launch the Start Menu. To do this, use the round button and the operating system logo or the "Win" key.
  2. Open "Control Panel".
  3. In the search box (top right) write "Flash" and press Enter.
  4. Run the found utility.

General plugin configurations are located here. They are sorted into 4 tabs.

"Storage" - saving some of the data necessary for the operation of applications to the hard drive of your personal computer. These can be settings such as video resolution or sound volume, or different game saves. Here you can choose whether sites can store such data.

Camera and Microphone - settings for your microphones and webcams. Here, users determine whether websites can use these devices and also assign default devices.

"Playback" - peer-to-peer network settings. Increase in performance and stability of the image due to the additional load on the Internet channel.

"Advanced" - delete all saved settings, as well as manage application updates.

Context menu

Users can also call up a small window with basic settings through the context menu in the Yandex browser. To do this, you need to right-click on the object using the Flash player. For example, a video player or a browser game.

In the drop-down context menu, select the "Parameters ..." item. In the window that opens, there are 5 tabs to control the player.

Adobe Flash Player is the most widely used plugin for playing web content, even though its competitor HTML5 has been introduced. You can install and activate it in whatever browser you use. In this article, we will show you how to install and configure a flash player in just a few steps.

Flash Player Upgrade to Latest Version

Step 1.

Download and install the latest flash player.

Step 2
Download plugin Adobe Flash System. You will find a large yellow button that says "Install Now" (click it).

Note: along with the flash player, Adobe also offers to download additional software. This is usually McAfee antivirus. If you do not want to install it, uncheck the box under the item "Additional offer".

Change to the directory where the installation package was downloaded. Double click to open the downloaded installer. This will start the installation process. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.

Note: it is recommended to close all browsers during installation, otherwise the changes will not take effect until they are restarted.

Enabling flash in your browser

In most browsers the Flash Player is automatically activated after installation, however, with some security settings, it may not activate. In this case, you must enable it manually.

Open the browser you use most often.

Go to the Tools menu. And select "Extensions" or "Add-ons".

Find the Adobe Flash Player or Shockwave flash plugin and check the box next to “Enable Flash Player”.

Checking Flash Player

Step 1

Reboot your computer. You can do this manually by clicking the Reset button (not desirable) or by looking for the appropriate option in the Windows Start menu.

Open a browser and load a page that uses Flash technology, such as the popular YouTube video resource. Try uploading a video. If it loads without any problems, you have successfully enabled Flash Player.

Configuring the Adobe Flash Player Plugin

To configure the flash player, use the local storage manager, which can be opened by going to the "Control Panel" and selecting the "Flash Player" item.

Local storage settings are used to manage permissions for using the plugin and storing information.

You can use local storage settings to allow or prevent websites from storing information through Flash Player, and to specify the amount of information stored. Sites can store browsing history, flash game statistics, and computer information.

To allow Internet resources to store data on the user's computer, select the Allow sites to store data on the computer option.

To allow only certain websites to store data, select the "Ask me before allowing new sites to store information on this computer" option.

To prevent all web resources from storing data on your PC, select the option "Block all websites from storing information on this computer."

Note. When you select the last option, absolutely all local storages are deleted from your computer. Before that, you will see a request to confirm deleting the local storage and setting a denial of data storage.

Why doesn't it show videos on the Internet?

Most often, the reason lies precisely in the absence of a flash player installed on the computer. In this case, you will see on the screen a message like this “You need to update your Flash player to view it. Install from Adobe official site. You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video. Click here to download the latest version from the Adobe website »

The presence or absence of Flash Player can bealso check in Start-Control Panel- Add or Remove Programs ( Windows XP), or Start-Control Panel-Uninstall a program (Windows 7). This is what should be visible with the flash player installed.

Where can I download Adobe Flash Player?

You can download Adobe Flash player on the official website of Adobe at the link h ttp: //get.adobe.com/ru/flashplayer/ . When you click on the link, the site will automatically detect the version of your operating system and the current browser in order to provide you with a suitable version of Flash Player "a. In the additional sentence column, I recommend unchecking all the checkboxes so as not to install any additional software. After clicking the yellow button" Install now ”, the download of the installer executable file, about 1 MB in size, will start.

Let's start installing Flash Player.

All downloaded files go to the Downloads folder by default. We find the downloaded installer there and run it with a double click of the mouse. In the "Flash Player Update Preferences" dialog, select the most appropriate update option, it is best to leave the recommended one, and click "Next". Downloading the main program package from the Internet will start.

At the end of the installation process, a success window will appear.

Congratulations, you've just been able to install Adobe Flash Player yourself.

Please note that this installation method is available only for computers with direct Internet access. To install the flash player on a computer that does not have Internet access, I suggest using the standalone installation package that can be downloaded from this link. This is the last version of the player at the time of this writing.

Interesting fact.

Lovers of the Google Chrome browser do not need in installing any additional modules for playing flash animation. The fact is thatgoogle Chrome has its own Flash Player. And it updates every time you refresh your browser.

FlashPlayer is a software module (plug-in) that makes it possible for video files, animations and games to work correctly, regardless of the browser used (for example, Firefox, InternetExplorer) and operating system (WindowsXP, Vista, Linux, MacOS). Thus, FlashPlayer is a link between the interactive program and the operating system used, ensuring the normal operation of a particular program on all systems.

The latest version of FlashPlayer can be downloaded for free from its developer, Adobe, and installed on your computer.

Please see Adobe's instructions for installing FlashPlayer for each operating system.

After successful installation of FlashPlayer in your browser, all elements of the Internet pages, for the transmission of which this plugin is required, will be displayed correctly.

Optimal Flash Player settings

For Fragoria to work flawlessly, you need to configure FlashPlayer for this game.

First enter the game.

Then right-click on any place on the map, after which a context menu will open, where you need to select "Settings" (settings).

Then you will see the setup assistant with different symbols.

First click the left mouse button on the first character in the bottom line.

Make sure the "enable hardware acceleration" checkbox is checked.

Deleting data saved by FlashPlayer (clearing the cache)

FlashPlayer stores data not only in the browser cache, but also on the hard drive. This data also needs to be erased sometimes to keep up with updates in the game.

3.1. Instructions for WindowsXP

Open "Start" -\u003e "Programs" -\u003e "Accessories" -\u003e "Explorer" -\u003e select in the top menu "Tools" -\u003e "Folder Options" -\u003e tab "View" -\u003e

Open the folder

Attention!

C: \\ Documents and Settings \\ username \\ Application Data \\ Macromedia \\ Flash Player \\

There, through the folders "macromedia.com", "support" and "flashplayer" we go into the folder "sys", where we similarly delete everything except the file "settings"!

3.2. Instructions for Windows Vista and Windows 7

First, you need to make the data hidden in Explorer visible. It works like this:

Open "Start" -\u003e "Programs" -\u003e "Accessories" -\u003e "Explorer" -\u003e select in the upper menu "Tools" -\u003e "Folder options" -\u003e tab "View" -\u003e " Show hidden files and folders ”, at the end“ OK ”.

After that, we proceed as follows:

Open the folder

Attention! The username is your Windows account.

The easiest way is to open “My Computer” and paste the specified file path into the address bar. Don't forget to replace your username with your Windows account!

After navigating to the specified file, select the "#SharedObjects" folder. This folder contains another one with a strange name, for example, QWHAJ7FR or something like that. So, the contents of this folder must be deleted completely and irrevocably!

After that, go to another folder:

C: \\ Users \\ username \\ AppData \\ Roaming \\ Macromedia \\ Flash Player \\

There, through the folders "macromedia.com", "support" and "flashplayer" enter the folder "sys", where we delete everything in the same way, except for the file "settings"!

We do a system reboot - and it's in the bag!

Dual Core and Quad Core Processors

FlashPlayer usually runs on computers with DualCore and QuadCore processors using only one processor core.

Therefore, for FlashPlayer, the number of processor cores does not matter. Only the power of a given core matters. However, the same kernel is used by other programs and by the operating system itself. So don't be too quick to underestimate the power of your computer!

4.1. Little tricks

The fact is that programs that cannot work in multi-core systems, or simply do not bother with it, are executed by the first core (Core 0 or Core 0) by default. As a result, there can be a crush there, while the rest of the cores are mostly idle. However, nothing prevents you from "transplanting" the process to a separate, unused kernel, thereby allocating more power for its execution. This is done like this, open Task Manager (Task Manager in Russian Windows). To do this, right-click on the taskbar and select launch from the menu. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl-Alt-Del and run it from there. Next, we find the one you need in the list of applications. In the case of Fragoria, this is the browser in which the game is running, or the client (fragoria.exe). Right-click on it and select Go to process (Go to the process in Russian). We get to the processes tab and the process you need will already be highlighted. Right-click on it and choose Set Affinity. In the window that opens, remove all the checkmarks except for the last kernel. Click OK and that's it, your process has been transferred to the VIP room :)
