Google Chrome to Warn Users of Flash Player Retirement

[silversurfer]

Adobe is planning to retire Flash Player in 2020, and the whole world is preparing for this critical moment, including browser developing companies.
 
Google, for instance, has tried to make the transition off Flash Player as smoothly as possible, and the upcoming release of Chrome 76 will represent a key step in this regard.
The browser will disable Flash Player completely, and users who’ll want this feature enabled will have to do the whole thing manually from the settings screen.
 
But the bigger change coming in Google Chrome is a warning that will be displayed when launching the browser, though there’s a chance that Google could further tweak this behavior in the coming weeks.
 
As discovered by 9to5google, a recent Chromium developer discussion provides us with an early look at the warning, which will be shown as an info bar at the top of the screen.
 
“Flash Player will no longer be supported after December 2020,” the notification reads, and a learn more link gets users to more information about this change.
