Re: NPAPI plugins list
There aren't any, given it is deprecated. All you'll find now is Flash.

Re: NPAPI plugins list
There were many:
Adobe Flash, Shockwave, Acrobat Reader, Silverlight, QuickTime...
All not developed anymore and mostly useless nowadays.

Re: NPAPI plugins list
You can still find Flash on the internet archive (the last working version is 32.0.0.371, and you can search old posts here for the link) and the only use for is sites that still host old Flash animations and games. The rest are long gone and deprecated.

Re: NPAPI plugins list
Until 2020, when I switched to Linux, I used SumatraPDF’s NPAPI plug-in to view the titular files. If I were still using Windows 7, I would still use it also.

Here the PDF-Xchange Viewer integrated the nppdfxcViewnpplugin.dll in Palemoon under Win10 when I linked the programs like here:

Re: NPAPI plugins list
The DLLs are of no use without the corresponding version of the programs they support; in fact one should get the installer for the program in question and let it deploy the browser plugins. Acrobat and VLC for example - there's no way current versions of either will work.

Re: NPAPI plugins list
Current version of VLC do come with a functional NPAPI plugin on Windows, though I don't know where it would be usable out-of-the-box. There's a ViewTube user script that can get YouTube videos to use it, but due to specifics of streams on YouTube, it's rather hacky and not as useful as one would assume.

I do have an older version of PDF-XChange Editor from 2023, that still comes with a NPAPI plugin, though some actions crash it...

Re: NPAPI plugins list
The only site where I recall VLC’s NPAPI plug-in to have been useful was on Cosmeo before it had shut down in September 2019. The site was launched in 2006 and was not substantially updated since. I recall RealPlayer or QuickTime as functional substitutes there in the 00s.
