Google is also ending Flash support for Chrome, having said this time last year that it would be dead by December 2020. That will be done through cumulative updates across multiple Windows versions, including Windows 10 and 8.1. After a few months, it will become a recommended update and in the summer of 2021, Microsoft will remove the Flash-related developer frameworks, group policies and user interfaces from legacy Edge and IE11.

Last month, Microsoft released a timeline for the end of Flash, saying the Flash removal tool would become an optional update in Windows Update by early 2021. “We are releasing this removal update in advance of end of support to help customers test and validate their environments for any impact that might occur by the removal of Adobe Flash Player,” Microsoft noted.

It doesn’t remove Flash from Microsoft Edge or other browsers, either. However, as Bleeping Computer noted, the update (KB4577586) only removes the Flash version bundled into Windows 10, and not any standalone versions you’ve installed yourself. Microsoft has released an optional Catalog update that removes Adobe Flash from Windows 10 and prevents it from being reinstalled, paving the way for the eventual death of the app in 2021.
