[bars] Adobe Flash Player end of life was yesterday January 12

[hgcsenior at gmail.com]

Adobe Flash Player is no longer supported.   Flash is used by most web
browsers for video, and is embedded in recent W10  versions.

 

Adobe  has an uninstall tool, which works on all file formats, however that
leaves you with a need for find another video player.

 

Microsoft released a Flash player free OS upgrade for W10, version 20H2 6
months ago,  which I applied today, because I did not want to find a third
pasty substitute flash player. And I am very glad I did it works well. 

 

If you plan to install 20H2 prepare as follows:

 

1.	From the Microsoft update site, preform all the overdue updates
first.
2.	Back up data
3.	RUN CHKDSK C:/ F  to make sure you don't have files on weak sectors.
4.	PLAN YOU COMPUTER MAY NOT BE AVAILABE FOR UP TO 8 HOURS!!

 

Down load the 20H2 upgrade file, and let it run. 

 

My update took 6 hours,  3 hours to reach 25% complete, 3 hours to reach
100%, speed packs up after 60%.

 

The first start after completion was long, 30 minutes, this is normal.  

 

Subsequent reboots are less than 2 minutes.

 

When is starts you will see the most beautiful color image of a swan coming
in for a lake landing in autumn.  

 

First starts for some items I run required more time for first start on
20H2, but no file maintenance or adjustments were required, just a little
patience.

 

For me N1MM and CWOps returned perfectly.  

 

If you have any questions I'll try and answer them.
