flash not displaying on palemoon

Unread post by picosschool » 2024-09-17, 02:55

Operating system: 64 bit Windows 10
Browser version: 33.3.1
32-bit or 64-bit browser?: 64 bit

hello, im having trouble loading flash stuff in palemoon. I have the flash player installed(32.0.0.371 NPAPI and it doesn't have the timebomb or anything) and I have already checked that it is always activated in the add-ons manager. Im just confused cuz I cant get flash stuff to show on palemoon, but its installed, shows up in add ons manager and has been always activated. im just not sure if im doing something wrong or not, any help would be appreciated, thanks!!

First check that Flash is also 64bit. I assume it is, but it's worth double-checking.
The likely cause is that the website you are visiting does not serve Flash content in a way that the plugin can find it, but rather use some other mechanism like Ruffle.
Can you provide a list of websites where you have issues on? Some are already known as not activating the Flash plugin and most have a solution which can be found by using the forum's search bar.
