Does Firefox Still Support the Shockwave Player?

more options

I have a Dell desktop computer with Windows 7 Professional. I cannot download the latest version of Shockwave Player which came out a day or two ago. I have easily downloaded the new versions in the past ...and I just downloaded it on my wife's Windows 10 Home. What is the problem? Does Firefox no longer support the Adobe Shockwave Player?

Hi Fishnet, if you can't play videos on mainstream video sites, it's likely to be an issue with the built-in HTML5 player and not Flash.

When you ARE on a site that uses the Flash plugin for video, you would see the plugin notification icon at the left end of the address bar (dark gray "Lego" block indicates Flash is activated for the site, light gray block indicates you need to activate it on the site).
