On 31 December 2020, Adobe will stop supporting Flash technology in browsers. The use of Flash applications will end at this time. Adobe announced the discontinuation of Flash support and use as early as 2017 in together with Google, Microsoft, Apple, Mozilla and Facebook.

  • Please note! The Flash plugin on the university’s IE, Edge, Firefox and Safari browsers will be removed from Monday 2 November 2020 onwards. With the deletion of the Flash add-on, the IT Center seeks to determine any Flash solutions still in use at the university so that replacement solutions can be implemented for them before the discontinuation of Flash support.
  • If necessary, Flash will be restored on individual computers that need it until the discontinuation of support and until a replacement solution has been implemented.
  • Note: The integrated Flash support in the Chrome browser and VDI computers will remain in use until the discontinuation of Flash support on 31 December 2020!
