Your System Delails shows

Shockwave Flash 16.0 r0

It's not the latest, but should still be good. Flash Player v16.0.0.235 https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html


If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)

  • disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Updated the plugin, no luck.

Graphics drivers are up to date.

Disabling protected mode doesn't fix it.

Cannot disable hardware acceleration, as I cannot right-click on the plugin.

Also tried resetting Firefox, running in Safe Mode and also with a fresh profile - still having an issue.
