See and hear Flash video and audio on a trusted website

If you have trouble playing animations, videos, or games in the Google Chrome browser, it’s usually because of a problem with Adobe Flash. If Flash is disabled in the Chrome settings, it isn’t available on any website you visit.

Here’s how to enable Adobe Flash within Chrome to make the plug-in available for use, manually enable Flash to run on a website you trust, and fix any Flash errors you may encounter.

Note: Adobe has discontinued Flash, and the major browsers, including Chrome, will no longer support Flash, even optionally, by the end of 2020.

Cause of Flash Not Working on Websites

Even if you previously enabled Flash to work on a trusted website, when you quit Chrome, your Flash settings aren’t saved. The next time you open Chrome, you’ll have to allow Flash again for it to work on a trusted site.

You’ll need to enable Flash in the Chrome settings, and then you’ll need to manually enable Flash on a website you trust that requires Flash to work properly.

Enable Flash in Chrome

Enabling Flash in the Chrome settings makes the plug-in available for use.

  1. Open a Google Chrome browser window and Select More (three dots) in the upper-right corner to access the Chrome menu.
  2. Select Settings.

  2. Select the Lock icon on the left side of the address bar.

Flash Errors in Chrome

If Flash still doesn’t run correctly after you enabled it on a trusted site, the plug-in might be corrupted or in need of an update. If Chrome needs an update, this might interfere with Flash, as well. You may see one of these errors:

  • Adobe Flash has been blocked because it’s out of date.
  • Couldn’t load plug-in.
  • The following plug-ins were blocked on this page.
  • This plug-in is not supported (or not responding).

Here are a few ways to fix a Flash error in Chrome.
