Microsoft has announced to completely remove the Adobe Flash component from Windows through the KB4577586 “Update for Removal of Adobe Flash Player” starting June 2021.

The company revealed that the KB4577586 “Update for Removal of Adobe Flash Player” will be included in the Preview Update for Windows 10, version 1809, and above platforms. 

 

As per Microsoft, KB4577586 “Update for Removal of Adobe Flash Player” will be included in the Latest Cumulative Update for Windows 10, version 1607, and Windows 10, version 1507. In addition, the KB will also be included in the Monthly Rollup and the Security Only Update for Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Embedded 8 Standard as of July 2021.

To recall, Adobe announced the end of Flash Player back in 2017. In July 2017, Microsoft, along with Adobe and their industry technology partners, announced that Adobe Flash Player would no longer be supported after December 2020. The decision to end support for Flash Player was made by Adobe due to the diminished usage of the technology and the availability of better, more secure options such as HTML5, WebGL, and WebAssembly.
