@kwizart, your instruction seems missing a step to integrate the plugin into the browser.

  1. OK, I’ll try Fedora Workstation. in the coming days.

  2. I think no need to trace . Thanx.

  3. I agree, flash is evil. But my four year old grandson is very fond of games :slight_smile:

Then there is need to contribute this integration script to RPM Fusion or Fedora, not start to hack back and forth a package that would be illegal to redistribute.

If you have a working and tested method, you are welcome to contribute.
I will gladly recommend that solution for the end user as soon as it is available.
Until then we use what we have.
Legality is a complex topic and I’m not sure it is even worth to raise in this thread.
Flash is almost obsolete and soon will likely stop working completely.

Before that, how about a simpler test to confirm if it is related to your user directory? Could you create a new user and see how Chrome works there? If it works there, then something is off in the configuration for your user. If it doesn’t, it’s a general system issue. That’ll at least help narrow it down a bit.

It looks like a faulty regional load balancing or incorrect content filtering.
You may try some VPN from another country to test the hypothesis.

Oh, well, I’d be very surprised if that was the case but yeh, best to use a VPN to confirm.

I tried, tried, tried…

Finally make another virtual machine, install Fedora LXQT
at once install Chrome
Miracle! Flash works.

I don’t know that I could break in three machines.

Let’s end this discussion.

I have many other questions.

Thanks.
