I have a ThinkPad Lenovo with Windows10. I'm not able to run a video because the system answer is: "Adobe Flash is disabled for this page, click player area to enable". I disinstalled and reinstalled Java, Adobe Flash, I verified Adobe Flash enabling on Firefox. Nothing changed. Someone can help me? Thanks.

I did what suggested, but it doesn't work. I suspect that, at this point, the security of the site could be the problem. I attach the parameters. Where I can force an "allow" about security? Thanks a lot.
