Hi,
I'm still confused with the last update on this matter.
In the last update on Adobe Flash Player end of support, is said that customers will be able to use Adobe Flash Player in the new Microsoft Edge via the IE mode, after 2020.
So my understanding, is that Flash content (ex.: websites) will still run in the new Microsoft Edge, after 2020, as of today, through the mentioned feature which can be enabled.
But as stated in this thread and in the blog posts on Adobe Flash Player end of support - Microsoft will fully remove Adobe Flash Player from all browsers: Edge, Edge (Legacy) and IE11.

So, my question is, for companies/customers which still relies on Adobe Flash Player after 2020, Microsoft Edge will allow to run such contents?
