Enabling Adobe Flash Player Chrome For Mac

Enable adobe flash player chrome macbook

Flash Player is integrated with Google Chrome as Pepper plug-in. Sometimes, it's necessary for developers to install the Content Debugger to debug their code. These instructions outline how to install and enable the Content Debugger.

Note:

The plugin will automatically run and you won't get the 'Click to activate' 'Run Adobe Flash' message. In the past, to protect you from plugins that have stability or security issues, Firefox could only turn off the problematic plugin.

If you have issues with integrated Flash Player plug-in in Chrome, report the issue to Google.
