I am trying to change the Firefox setting so I can access Flash, consistently, but I can't locate the "Options" window that I have read in articles I need to make changes to so that I can access Flash. Can you tell me how to access it? Or if not, how to permanently change my settings so that I can access Flash again? Thanx

You can find the plugins on the about:addons page:

  • Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins

You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:

  • Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
  • Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
  • Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

You first need to update to the most recent flash. https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
