12/22/20 – Adobe ends Flash Support

Adobe ends Adobe Flash support

Adobe is no longer supporting and providing security updates for Adobe Flash. Adobe will block Flash content from running in Flash Player beginning January 12, 2021.

UWB IT will begin removing Adobe Flash Player from all University devices beginning January 4, 2021.

What you need to do:

Between today and January 15, 2021, do the following a few times a week:

• At the end of the work day, close all open web browsers
• Connect to Husky OnNet (Big-IP Edge Client) on your macOS or Windows computer

• Keep your computer logged in overnight

Please note: This update will automatically restart your browsers. Open tabs may be lost, but can be restored via the browser’s history.
