@leocg Yet I need them and maybe others too though i cant speak for anyone but me
You will nevertheless experience a decreasing array of Flash-compatible browser options over the next 6 to 23 months. After that, your Flash options become thin indeed.
By mid-2019, IE and Edge will both have Flash disabled by default (though still able to be manually re-enabled via the settings); by mid-2020, Flash will be non-existent in both browsers. By mid-2019, Chrome (and the chromium clones) will behave exactly the same way. By early 2020, the Firefox Flash plug-in will disappear as a default, though Flash will be accessible from the settings; by the end of 2020, Flash will be non-existent in Firefox. By the end of 2020, your best bet for a Flash-compatible browser will likely only be one of a few Webkit-based clones that retain Flash for however long thereafter. These deprecation schedules are already in place and unfolding, even as we write. (https://www.computerworld.com/article/3211437/web-browsers/faq-how-apple-google-microsoft-and-mozilla-will-eliminate-adobe-flash.html )
Once Flash goes unsupported by Adobe at the end of 2020, no further security updates will occur, period. (This, in a software program that has historically been one of the most security-flawed entities ever released.) When chromium and Microsoft finally, fully deprecate Flash on or before the end of 2020, over 95% of the browser marketplace will be unable to render Flash content. That largely guarantees that any site relying on Flash will either find an alternative to Flash or will soon evaporate. Already, only 5% of all websites employ Flash, down from over 28% in 2011 (https://www.alphr.com/software/1009184/adobe-flash-dead-websites-ditch-software ).

it sticks at 90 loading
portable 106 version goes past and runs itThat's weird. There's nothing in the changelog for 57.0.3098.110 that should affect any of this. I also can't reproduce the issue with 110. It works the same as 106 for me. I'd guess that some extension or Opera Sync or Opera's adblocker or
Opera Turbo or Opera VPEN, or a corrupted profile or something outside Opera is causing issues when Opera updates.I can see Flash is still loading for you in 110, so it's not that at least. It seems to be an issue with resource fetching.
Did you try a fresh, portable install of 110?

There error for tinman.swf is saying that the server sent it with the wrong mime type (something like text/plain or text/html for example) instead of application/x-shockwave-flash. I get that too, but I can't confirm that by checking the response headers. It's sent with applicatoin/x-shockwave-flash like it's supposed to be. It doesn't seem to affect loading in my case, so I wouldn't worry about it. When loading the swf file directly, I don't get that message, so maybe it's just caused by loading the swf file in an iframe which expects documents. Not sure.
As for the other error, I don't get that. Looks like something from an adblocker.

Preference file or Local State file or an extension for example. Or, maybe it's a corrupted cache or a cookie issue.
Before doing that though, in the developer tools, goto the Network tab, check disable cache, open a new tab and paste the URL for the page or the URL for the swf file) into the tab and press enter. See how it loads then.

@burnout426 disabling cache makes it load really fast to 90 but then it still freezes at 90

Try deleting Flash's cache. "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia"
Also, delete Opera's cache and media cache while its closed. "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Opera Software\Opera Stable"
If you disable all your extensions, disable Opera Sync, disable VPN, disable Opera Turbo, and disable Opera's adblocker in your normal Opera, and it still only loads to 90, I'd assume it's an issue in its Local State file or Preferences file. You can load them with JSONedit and compare them to the ones in the portable version to see if you can see any differences that might cause the issue.

I am a dumbass and apologies for wasting everyones time
I did mention I had memory problems
This is an example
It just came to me I installed a chrome cache viewer program
and in that i must have screwed up and changed the cache folder
its in appdata local instead of roaming which is why i couldnt find it
opera new where it was though
self inflicted injury this one so apologies -

@leocg yes i realised that after i posted
was just a brain fart cos what i meant to say was
I had been using the settings option to clear cache but it doesnt work i think
when i used the dev tools it did
doing it manually i was clearing the wrong folder
roaming/opera/application cache
which ofc didnt do anything to help -
