Adobe Flash Player Plugin Gone!

Today, I was having trouble with YouTube and a few other websites that use Adobe Flash Player. Videos stopped playing and started displaying errors in the middle of viewing. On most refresh attempts, the errors would occur without end. I decided to turn off the plugin, and turn it back on, because that usually solves the problem. Unfortunately, when I went to the plugins page, Adoby Flash Player was nowhere to be seen. I know that I didn't delete it. I never delete useful plugins. Would someone kindly tell me what's going on please?

Are you a bot or something?? What did you not understand from the above posts???
ANYWAY! I think I got the solution. I downloaded the "NPAPI" flavor of the flash player, meaning the "Flash Player for Firefox and Netscape Plug-In compatible applications – NPAPI", and voila, the plugin re-appeared in the opera:plugins page and the videos are playing.
Why did I need to go through this workaround? Adobe might have a say here. It seems that it gives the "wrong" flavor for opera browsers.. Check it out!

Also having issues with Opera and Flash after the recent update. Opera required an update last week, once it completed, I noticed that Flash player no longer worked. Downloaded the latest version from the adobe website but this has not fixed the issue.
The issue is with a game bot that I have used for a few months. After leaving the bot on overnight (and working), I find in the morning that I have a blank screen with no text. The only way I have found to get it to work again is to restart the computer. I have not had any issues with the bot and other browsers.

Btw, this is valid for any user.I was on topic, my post was complete and your reply was not justified or helpful at all. I was perfectly compliant with the rules, your response seemed like trolling. Think about it next time.

It was the ppapi. The ppapi one is what adobe is proposing for opera when you go to their website. If you download the npapi one (on top of the ppapi), it works fine again.

The flag to enable the ppapi flashe is/was enabled? Other plugins work?

As I said, "Flash player plugin was missing from opera"! No flash plugin was there to enable/ disable! when I downloaded the NPAPI, the plugin appeared! Other plugins were in place and enabled.
