In 2015, Google introduced a Chrome update that does both while keeping central content playing without interruption. To that end, Google partnered with Adobe to make sure that your browsing experience is not only rich and interactive but also power efficient. This was put in place because Adobe Flash allows web pages to display media-rich content that can sometimes drain your computer’s battery. Through a feature in the browser, Google’s latest release of the Chrome browser intelligently pauses content that’s not central to the webpage like Flash animations. Not only that, but Flash Player is also blocked on most web browsers by default as browser developers for Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome abandoned plugins in favor of HTML 5.

Today, it’s not possible to automatically play such media-rich content because Flash is blocked in Chrome by default. Previously, you could play Flash-based content such as videos and other graphics on any website regardless of your browser of choice. Google’s Chrome browser has a built-in version of Flash so you probably won’t need to install a different plugin to unblock Flash Player in Chrome. Wrapping Up Why Flash Doesn’t Work On Chrome
