        I use Opera 30.0.1835.59 and Linux Mint 17.1. Adobe flash plugin is not recognised and does not work in Opera! Very bad! I am thinking to switch to another browser!

                So how come the "Help" pages haven't been updated?
                I've been going round and round in circles trying to implement the procedure I found here http://www.opera.com/docs/linux/plugins/install/#flash as of course, none of the directories mentioned exist!

                  This document was last updated for Opera 11.00.

                  I dont know why help pages havent been updated.

                    I agree, I think they should update it, and everything that is here: http://www.opera.com/docs/. It's especially confusing when some pages are updated, like "history of Opera versions".

                      I've spoken to the documentation team, and they're working on updates for these pages. Sorry for the confusion in the mean time!

                        This (1) helped me.
                        In plugin page I saw afterward: "Shockwave Flash 99.999 r999"

                        (1) sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree

                        Opera version: 32.0.1910.0
                        Ubuntu 14

                          To update your pepperflashplugin type

                          sudo apt-get update

                          sudo apt-get install --reinstall pepperflashplugin-nonfree

                          Then check, if you have the newest version here: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

                          Simple sudo apt-get upgrade will not update it.

                            Thank you, I've been scratching my head for a while trying to get Flash to work on Opera 39 (Linux). The pepperflashplugin has to be reinstalled because during installation because the package is just a downloader/installer that runs a download script to download the latest version. For this reason the normal apt-get update/upgrade will not work, as it will not see an updated downloader.

                                  Hi,
                                  I'm struggling with flash on Opera 43.0.2442.806 (Ubuntu 16.04LTS). I've installed pepperflash-nonfree but Opera doesn't see anything in opera://plugins. I've tried to copy *.so to different locations (as you mentioned it here) but it didn't help. Any new suggestions? Cheers.

                                    You may do what https://gist.github.com/ruario/215c365facfe8d3c5071 said to see if it works.
