This should bring Flash installations to just about a complete stand-still for every operating system above Windows 8. The KB4577586 will also be included as part of the Monthly Rollup and the Security Only Update for Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Embedded 8 Standard. It is not just the AJ Tek team reinforcing this either! Microsoft has further re-iterated that as of July 2021, the KB4577586 “Update for Removal of Adobe Flash Player” will be included in the Latest Cumulative Update for Windows 10, versions 1507, 1607, 1809 and above.
No current or previous versions should be installed into any systems in the future, and it should absolutely be removed from any system that is currently using it.
Once installed, you can wave goodbye to Adobe Flash Player as you will not be able to use it again!īefore we all move on from mentioning Flash Player ever again, the AJ Tek team wants to reinforce to our users that this plug-in is absolutely, positively, 100% dead. “As part of the end of support for Adobe Flash, KB4577586 is now available as an optional update from Windows Update (WU) and Windows Server Update Services (WSUS),”Īlthough some users have seen this update come across their server automatically already, those wishing to download it simply need to visit the “Optional Updates” section of their WU or WSUS to enable the update. Shortly after Adobe officially stopped supporting the plug-in, Microsoft confirmed that their “Flash Player-Killer patch” is now available for download in a February 2021 support document. If you are concerned about how to remove Adobe Flash Player from your system, worry not, Microsoft already has you covered. Not only is Adobe not supporting it, they are actively blocking content from being able to run in the player, and urging their users to uninstall Flash Player from their Windows 10 to protect devices from potential attacks. Here at AJ Tek, we like to keep our customers in the know when it comes to major changes to not only our WSUS Automated Maintenance (WAM) software, but the WSUS and Windows world in general! One such major announcement that we want to focus on is that Adobe, a trusted partner of Microsoft, has stopped supporting Flash Player, seemingly marking the final step towards the death of the plug-in.
