That being said, Microsoft has announced that they will be releasing an optional update for Windows 10 that will remove Flash from your computer and also prevents it from being reinstalled again. It had a good long run and we have to give it credit for paving the way for platforms like YouTube, but we suppose like all good things, it has to come to an end, especially given that the past few years, Flash has proven to be more problematic than useful.

If Flash Player PPAPI plugin was uninstalled correctly, you should not receive any more notifications to update Flash Player.At the end of 2020, Adobe will be officially retiring Flash for good. The only thing I can think of that may have caused this was I had an old version of Chrome on the system that I deleted a while back. They completely deleted FLASH and all the PPAPI stuff.

It does not apply to Flash Player ActiveX for IE/Edge as the distribution of the embedded Flash Player ActiveX for IE/Edge is managed by Microsoft via Windows Updates. Note that, on Windows 10, this update option only applies to Flash Player NPAPI (for Firefox) or PPAPI (for Chromium-based browsers). Yes, with an older version of PPAPI plugin installed, you were being notified that a newer version was available to install. I look at my Adobe flash player settings manager, and the button is pressed for "notify me to install updates" is this causing the message? The above indicates that an old version of Flash Player PPAPI plugin is installed on the system. I looked at Task Scheduler it has Adobe Flash player Updater and Adobe Flash Player PPAPI Notifier, at the bottom it says configure for Vista, and Windows Server 2008? These updaters were installed 11/29. My flash player is PPAPI plug in version 31.0.0.153 I mentioned PPAPI plugin in my reply based on the following comments in your first post:

I understood that from your first post, including that Microsoft updates were installed fine. Thank you for the info, but lets get to specifics.
