Now opening C:\animation.swf in IE works normally and plays the animation but the exe still only shows the EOL Flash logo with the "i" when trying to play that same local swf file. I add this mms.cfg to both %WINDIR%\System32\Macromed\Flash & %WINDIR%\SysWow64\Macromed\Flash: EnableAllowList=1 Hope this gets someone else out of trouble!ĭoes anyone have any tips for getting the mms.cfg workaround to work with a Windows executable that uses flash? This is for an exe file that opens a GUI that plays a locally stored swf animation on Windows 10 (no Edge or Chrome installed).įor example if the file is C:\animation.swf IE and the exe file both show the same EOL Flash logo with the "i". Once it's saved, relaunch the browser being used and follow the usual steps for allowing Flash for the site in-browser. The GPO to enable Flash in IE/Edge will no longer be effective if that update gets applied.

IE and Edge will have Flash support removed via not-yet-known Windows Update.
