Just recently, a current game that I play in Facebook has changed to requiring Flashplayer. I did the recommended install of version flashplayer32 but with no affect. Firefox does not recognize the new installation and nowhere to let Firefox know. I am using Firefox 69.0, Windows 10.

Hello Hoosier Fan, Since the last Firefox update to you can no longer set Flash to "Always Activate", but sites that (still use the "almost dead" Flash) need to ask to activate Flash, as shown in your screenshot.

According to your system details, Flash is installed - what happens when you click on the "Enable Flash and Relaunch: button ?

It again takes me to the Adobe website to download & install again. Which of course does not work. Been there, done that.

That must be so frustrating (to say the least).

If you haven't already; would you please go over this article and see if maybe something there might shed some light on it :

If that doesn't help - I'm sure that someone else will come to your rescue.

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page to that doubledown casino page?

The problem is that it is only one game in this site that is requiring Flash. No problems with other casino games at all. The only link that would be available would be to the gaming site within Facebook. I did look at the other Firefox site you suggested. The recommendations mostly refer to older versions of Firefox. Even was a link to another page that verified what you have told me that Flash is slowly being fazed out. So for this one game, time to delete it from my favorites. Don't like Chrome or MS's browser. Thank you for your patience and help.

You had problems with that site about a year ago too (totally different though) - Lady Luck doesn't seem to be dealing you a good hand in that casino .....

I don't know what's going here, so I'm leaving you in the capable hands of cor-el (or others).
