I noticed this morning that the Add-ons section of the browser listed Adobe Flash Player as outdated. This is version 21.0.0.213. I click the Update now button and it takes me to the correct site as usual however there is no new version of Adobe Flash Player available. I only have the choice to install version 21.0.0.213, which I am alreday using and Firefox is tell me is outdated.

Why can't I find a newer version to install?

Edit: I checked with Adobe and it verified that I am running the latest version of Flash Player. Still does not explain why Firefox says it is outdated though.

Hmm, I see that, and as far as I can tell, it's a mistake. The plugin checker wants you to have 21.0.0.226 (see attached screenshot), but that update is, as far as I can tell, only for Mac at this point. For Windows, 21.0.0.213 still is the latest. Hopefully they'll fix it before we get a dozen more questions!

This means that version 21.0.0.226 will be made available for Windows users shortly then I assume.

Thank you for your reply.

I don't know, the explanation for the Mac .226 update was:

April 21, 2015 [sic] - In today's release, we've updated Flash Player NPAPI for OSX to resolve a bug that was impacting certain Mac video cards.

So it sounds pretty platform-specific. https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/release-note/fp_21_air_21_release_notes.html

The Plugin check should be showing 21.0.0.213 as the latest for Windows users now.
