  1. # Step 1
  2. Use a browser that still supports Flash (Basilisk, Pale Moon, Firefox-ESR(only for a limited time))
  3.  
  4. # Step 2
  5. Edit mms.cfg so that flash doesn't auto-update or show EOL notice.
  6. To do this go to:
  7.  
  8. 32-bit Windows: %WINDIR%\System32\Macromed\Flash
  9. 64-bit Windows: %WINDIR%\SysWow64\Macromed\Flash
  10. MacOS: /Library/Application Support/Macromedia
  11. Linux: /etc/adobe/
  12.  
  13. Edit the file "mms.cfg" or create it if it doesn't exist (use Notepad++ on Windows).
  14. The content of the file should be:
  15.  
  16. SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0 # disable automatic updates
  17. AutoUpdateDisable=1 # disable update checking
  18. EOLUninstallDisable = 1 # disable EOL notice
  19. EnableInsecureAllowListLocalPathMatching = 1 # fixes bug with filenames with brackets, may also fix MPC-HC
  20. AllowListUrlPattern = file:* # Allow all local files to run in browsers.
  21.  
  22. # Step 3 (Option 1)
  23. Patch the latest version.
  24. To do this go to the same directory as step 2, then depending on the flash version you have you need to edit a certain file.
  25. Flash32_32_0_0_###.ocx (ActiveX: IE / IrfanView version)
  26. Flash64_32_0_0_###.ocx (ActiveX: IE / IrfanView version)
  27. NPSWF32_32_0_0_###.dll (NPAPI: Firefox / Palemoon / Basilisk version)
  28. pepflashplayer32_32_0_0_###.dll (PPAPI: Chrome/Chromium/360/Edge version)
  29.  
  30. Copy it to desktop, remove read-only attribute, and edit this line with a hex editor like HxD, save, then replace the original file.
  31. The strings to replace is
  32. 00 00 40 46 3E 6F 77 42
  33. You need to replace it with
  34. 00 00 00 00 00 00 F8 7F
  35.  
  36. # Step 3 (Option 2):
  37. In alternative instead of patching the latest version you can install an older version without killswitch (note: if you have the latest version installed downgrading requires extra steps).
