I downloaded and ran the exe for 'Plugin-based browsers' and this worked.

I tried searching on google and downloaded the general flash player update ( ) - installed it and nothing changed.Įventually after 20 minutes of searching, I found this obscure page on Adobe: I tried searching for the flash player update in the firefox add-ons - nothing. No Flash was loading.īizarrely, the grey box telling me I needed a plugin didn't give me any hint as to what plugin I needed, provided no link, and even blocked the fail-safe link to adobe that is displayed if flashplayer is not installed when using swfobject.js. I tried loads of sites, and it became apparent that flash was not installed in the firefox browser at all. So when I went to my site in the new Firefox browser, I was surprised to see a lot of "plugin needed" boxes. It's a Flash games site with lots of flash ads. I usually use Chrome but recently I've been redesigning my website and today I tried loading it on multiple browsers to see if there were any problems. I just installed Firefox on a new computer running Windows 8.1.
