I know that most browsers including Firefox will stop supporting flash by the end of 2020. However there is a system yet that uses flash in my company. We need more time(several month) to change the system, so we need to use the current system that using flash for a while.

What I want to know is that could I continue to use flash, if I don't update Firefox browser? (by turnning off Auto updating) I asked Adobe, and they said it is possible. (but they didn't recommend) https://community.adobe.com/t5/flash-player/is-flash-available-after-end-of-life-if-i-block-browser-auto-updating/m-p/11485642?page=1

Of course, I understand the security issues and we will use them in limited environments.
