New in Adobe Flash Updater 4.2.0.0 (Feb 15, 2019)

  • Fixed: Minor display issue fixed that I noticed. Should not effect anything except the ascetics of the program.

New in Adobe Flash Updater 4.1.0.8 (Feb 15, 2019)

  • Added: A indicator that if your machine has not been rebooted in more than 5 days it might be helpful to do so as I have noticed that somethings things do not work right with lengthy up times. ANY button can be pressed and it is up the user to reboot it is NOT forced.
  • Fixed: I prevent the removal of FlashPlayerApp.exe and FlashPlayerCPLApp.cpl for windows 8.X and above and prevents its removal if ActiveX is NOT selected on Windows 7. The control panel can be restored by re-installing ActiveX flash player. For Windows 8.X and up you have to go to Control Panel - Uninstall or Change a Program - View installed updates. You must select to uninstall the Security Update for Adobe Flash Player( see screenshot below ). Once that is removed, run Windows Updates, and it should re-install that update.

New in Adobe Flash Updater 4.1.0.0 (Feb 15, 2019)

  • Added a DPI fix for higher DPI monitors. On a 125 DPI monitor the GUI did not show everything.
  • Added a debug log that resides in Documents of the current user. Basically each thing that is done literally is logged after it is completed.
  • Fixed the advanced menu so that the player types are remembered when the advanced menu is opened and closed. PPAPI, ActiveX and NPAPI will retain setting until program is closed. All other button will reset as they may not need to be re-run.

New in Adobe Flash Updater 4.0.0.2 (Feb 15, 2019)

  • Redesigned the GUI to move options to an advanced menu.
  • Progress will show in the main window of the GUI now
  • To uninstall without installing any flash player just uncheck all the version in the advanced menu.
  • The buttons will be disabled during the run, and re-enabled when completed. To kill ay anytime in the system tray, right click and hit 'Exit'
  • The advanced menu will return to defaults after the app runs each time.
  • In Windows 8.X through Windows 10 the ActiveX and Fix permissions will be disabled as they are either not recommended or useless in those Operating systems.
