How to install FlashPlayer 23 (PPAPI)?

rated 0 times [ 4] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 4735 / 2 Years ago, mon, august 1, 2022, 4:01:35

The file that I get from the official Adobe website is in the tar.gz file format. I tried the "standard" way of installing software with that extension, which wouldn't work.

Also, installing using Canonical's repo gives me version 11.2, which is very outdated.

You simply need to install the adobe-flashplugin package from the Partner repository.

Note that the version shown in chrome://plugins will still be 11.2.999.999 and not 23. This is also true if you download the file from the page linked to in your question and place the libpepflashplayer.so file in the system folder.

However, if you visit https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ it should show that you have version 23.
