Adobe Flash is the software responsible for displaying graphics in a browser. Without it, the user can neither watch the movie, nor study the pictures, nor play games on social networks. Therefore, we will further consider the procedure for disabling (crashing) Adobe Flash.

It is recommended that you start by reinstalling Adobe Flash. If it didn’t help, reinitialize Mozilla or another browser. If necessary, you will have to update the appropriate software.
Incompatibilities and conflicts with other plugins
Did the Adobe Flash plugin crash in Mozilla? What to do under such circumstances?
Sometimes a similar situation arises due to the conflict of "Flash Player" with other plugins. To get rid of crashes, you will need:
- Go to the "Plugins" in the browser.
- Disable all available applications except for Adobe Flash.
- Restart your web browser.
- Turn on plugins in Mozilla one by one in order to detect conflicting software.
- Disable or remove the plugin that causes Adobe Flash to crash.
Perhaps this is all. Typically, this alignment is rarely found in practice, but it is still necessary to remember about it.
Flash Bans
Did the suggested recommendations prove futile? Do not despair, the studied problem is solved in most cases. But how exactly?

To translate ideas into reality, the user will:

- Click on the application icon in the upper right corner of the browser.
- Select an action for the active page. For example, "Allow."
- Latest Mozilla updates
Did the user crash the Adobe Flash plugin? What to do in this or that case, we found out. But what if a similar problem arises in Mosil more often?
Usually, Adoba crashes with users with Mozilla 52+ versions. The thing is that with this assembly, some plugins in the browser are disabled. For example, Unity Web Player and Adobe Flash Player. In version 52 of the Internet browser, you can activate the corresponding option, but we won’t find out how to do this.
