Do I even need Flash, or can I just uninstall it? Thanks for the help!Ĭhrome and Edge use 2 different types of Flash Player. on this computer, I only use it for Photoshop & Lightroom and reading PDF files. Chrome is my default browser and the only browser that we use, so should I just not worry about the version I'm 'missing' for Edge? Honestly, we don't do any web browsing, online video viewing, etc. I'm guessing my anti virus software detected the 142 version as being out of date, however I'm not sure how to fix this-I can't exactly have two versions of Flash on my computer. However, the current version for MS Edge is 32.0.0.144. When I looked at the version of Flash that I have on my computer, it matches the current version Adobe has out for Chrome-32.0.0.142. There was a link to update it right there in the Flash window, which took me to Adobes website that listed current versions of Flash for various browsers & operating systems. I opened up Flash via my computers control panel to check for updates & see what version I have. I have two browsers on my computer-Chrome and MS Edge.

When I went to install the update I ran into trouble. (This was through a vulnerability scan I ran through my software, not a pop up I got while online). My anti virus software detected a critical level update to Adobe flash.
