Ubuntu Linux: How to Install Flash Player for firefox

To install the Adobe Flash Player plugin for Firefox on an Ubuntu Linux system, you can follow these steps:

  1. Download the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player plugin from the Adobe website:
    https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

  2. Save the downloaded .tar.gz file to a location on your system.

  3. Extract the contents of the .tar.gz file using the tar command. For example:

tar xvf adobe-flash-player.tar.gz
So‮www:ecru‬.lautturi.com

This will extract the contents of the .tar.gz file to a new directory.

  1. Change to the directory where the Flash Player plugin was extracted. For example:
cd adobe-flash-player
  1. Run the install_flash_player_"your_linux_version"_linux.x86_64.tar.gz script to install the Flash Player plugin. For example:
sudo sh install_flash_player_"your_linux_version"_linux.x86_64.tar.gz

Replace "your_linux_version" with the version of Linux that you are using (e.g. "ubuntu16.04").

  1. Restart Firefox to complete the installation of the Flash Player plugin.

The Adobe Flash Player plugin should now be installed and enabled in Firefox on your Ubuntu Linux system.

Keep in mind that Adobe Flash Player is no longer actively developed and is not recommended for use on modern websites. It is recommended to use alternative technologies such as HTML5 for web content.

For more information on installing the Adobe Flash Player plugin on Ubuntu Linux, you can refer to the Adobe website or the Firefox documentation.
