"flash player will no longer be supported"

Every time I open Edge Dev/Canary I get this message, It really needs a way to dismiss it adding so it doesn't pop up every browser load (other than disabling Flash as that's not an option as despite what Google think it is still required for a LOT of internet/intranet sites).

    I cannot imagine how annoying this will be until December 2020!!!

     

    Is there no way to turn off the notice once I have seen it. It is (almost) enough to make me STOP USING EDGE!

    I am also getting this message and it's getting very annoying.

    I know Flash will no longer be supported, but there are some sites for which I occasionally still need it. It would be nice if you could dismiss this message forever rather than on every browser load.

    Strange, I've never seen that message. I wonder what you have to do to get it?

      Noel Burgess  I think if you set Flash to on, Ask first (recommended). Then it will show you the message, and yes every time you open your browser it is there and needs to be closed.

        I agree.  Very annoying.  No other browser does this.  Please add an option to not show this more than once.

  • That's right, many websites use flash and that notification about end of flash support in 2020 is very annoying
