Housekeeping in Chrome Portable

Adobe Flash support for portable apps

Submitted by guziva on March 19, 2017 - 4:42am

Hi,

Firefox and Chrome disabled default the flash support. Can somebody explain how to use Flash for them without installing Flash on operating system? Is there any way to download the flash dll from official site? If yes, Where to copy this dll inside PortableApps/Firefox/Data and PortableApps/GoogleChrome/Data folders?

Thank you

Chrome Portable not portable anymore (after configuring any setting)

Submitted by buhwuh on February 25, 2017 - 12:08pm
