      @ceedee It's not the only link on the post, there are the Adobe ones too.

        ahh I was looking at a diff post but interestingly
        when i click the adobe one i get the same thing as op
        it says click to enable flash but this does nothing unless you allow flash in the opera message at top under bookmarks bar which is hard to see and easy to miss

          @ceedee This is the expected behavior, except for the 'hard to see' part.

            I have the same problem.

            The image in helpx.adobe.com doesn't give me an option to click to enable.
            https://prnt.sc/izwbz1

            Using whatismybrowser.com , it says that flash is not installed or not enabled.

            A page I can't properly see: https://prnt.sc/izwhps

              @leocg It is not hard to see per se just easy to miss it as your eyes are focussed on the click to enable flash box thats all. Not sure what happens if you dont click it either way does it then default to disallow maybe.

                @hecatombe http://whatismybrowser.com/ says that I have Flash installed and on http://espinachio.mybrute.com/cellule, I see a 'click here to enabled Flash' message.

                  Well after seeing that the "help" here did not work. I decided to look for it myself and I found it for my case.

                  I take a long history of trial and error that does not count, I'll just say the solution.

                  If you have started the session in opera with the synchronization activated, reset the synchronization.

                  Here: https://auth.opera.com/account/login/success

                  Uncheck the configuration synchronization option, in the configuration panel in the Browser section. Settings / Browser / Advanced configuration.

                  Reset the factory opera. Settings / Browser / Reset Opera.

                  Re-login with your opera account and synchronize again.

                  Enjoy flash xD

                    Well, thank you.
                    I don't use synchronization. After your post I did log in, reseted opera, and loged in again. And it did nothing.

                    But I tried a second time, and even with out relogin it works now. Now the image to enable appears, and clicking it enables flash.

                    It's fixed, ty.

                      For future reference, to test to see if you can at least get Flash running in a fresh, test Opera:

                      Download the Opera installer, launch it, click "options", set "install path" to a folder on your desktop, set "install for" to "standalone installation" and install. In that Opera, goto "Menu -> settings -> Websites -> Flash" and set Flash to "Allow sites to run Flash". Don't enable Opera Sync in this test Opera.

                      If that doesn't work, in settings in that test Opera, goto "Browser -> System" and uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available" and restart that Opera to see if it helps.

                      If you're not certain you have Flash for Opera, goto https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ in Opera, uncheck "download Chrome" (and any other offers), click "install now" to download the installer, launch the installer, close Opera, install Flash and start the test Opera back up again and test some sites.

                      If it still doesn't work in the test Opera, you should look for something outside of Opera causing the problem.

                        I think my problem come to the folder "preferences" on the synchronisation .

                            But can I set that plugin to be enabled automatically?
                            Before there was a setting in flags to always enable now there is not.

                                  Are both of you still using 52, or are you posting in a thread that isn't really the right topic?

                                    Despite it seems the new problems will be pushed out into another Topic:

                                    Look at this FlashPlayer WorkAround in the meantime.
