      Click the badge at the left of the address field (the lock in this case), goto site settings and allow Flash. Then, it'll work. You'll have to repeat this each time your restart Opera. Same with Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers.

            No. Flash support is being removed. Not remembering the setting is part of that process.

            on chrome appears an icon that can be clicked and turn on Flash Player anywhere but opera is not present this icon.

            In Chrome, you can click on the "Enable flash" button on the page to trigger the notification in the address field where you can then click the notification to temporarily enable Flash. In Opera, that won't work. You can enable "ask first" in opera://settings/content/flash though and then you'll get a big, gray area to click on to enable Flash where you can then choose to allow it in the dialog that pops up. But, "ask first" will be reset when you close Opera.

            I don't think anything is going to be fixed/changed with this as Flash support will be dropped in a few months.

              @popa666 That is part of Chromium roadmap to end support for Flash in December.

                if you are not a moderator do not interfere in the conversation.!!!!

                so far things have been going very well with opera
                I don't know what the hell prompted you to turn off the flash player
                I rely on moderators to be more tolerant of their users
                I don't think it's just me I need Flash Player
                Your other users will automatically switch to another browser
                I don't think it's right to follow in the footsteps of Chrome
                giving them to me as an example
                return things as they were they were not worse than now
                you want to make a better browser
                stop ruining it
                I used opera for games but now !!! too bad!!!
                you made opera easy to use only for you moderators but for simple users it is too complicated
                think about what i wrote

                    @popa666 As announced in 2017(?), Adobe, the maker of Flash, will stop developing it in December 31 2020.
                    Following that decision, Chromium started a roadmap to end the support for Flash. Other browsers started their roadmaps too and on 2021 (almost) no browser will support Flash because there is no meaning in supporting something that no longer exists.

                      My question is addressed to the moderators others can not help

                      I don't think I'm the only one playing flash games
                      the game I play is played by many others
                      most people used opera because Flash Player was not banned
                      This is not the only game I play on a flash player
                      There are an amazing number of games for Flash Player
                      people will need a browser to support these games be one that supports Flash Player
                      Let Flash Player it work for you even after stopping so we can only play opera - games...

                      so you will gain more users..

                        Totally wrong. Moderators just moderate the forum (to ensure the rules are followed). Some of them, of course, have technical background regarding the Opera issues, but there are also advanced and active users here on the forum.

                          @popa666 Flash is dead for a long time already, just accept it and move forward.

                                @popa666 The authors of those Flash based games are the ones that should give you a solution. They had enough time to upgrade to something more modern.

                                You can download old versions of Opera from the FTP.

                                To disable the automatic updates, check the FAQ

                                Don't forget to install Opera while offline and don't go online until you have disabled auto-update.

                                  Could you explain in more detail How to stop the opera update?
                                  And where exactly can I download it from an old version of Opera?
                                  please provide a web address and if this no makes it difficult for you
