This annoying computer program is about to be scrapped
<p>Adobe is planning to remove its Flash Media Player by the end of 2020, the company announced in a blog post on Tuesday.</p>
<p>Adobe Flash Player is still being used by a number of gaming, education, and video sites, but the company is encouraging businesses and people that use Flash to migrate to other platforms.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Say goodbye to annoying update messages like this. </em></p>
<p>“We will stop updating and distributing the Flash Player at the end of 2020 and encourage content creators to migrate any existing Flash content to these new open formats,” Adobe said in a statement.</p>
<p>In the past few years, web browsers Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Safari have all blocked Flash ad used HTML5 instead.</p>
<p>Adobe Flash was crucial in enabling early websites to run videos and online games. But as the web has evolved and improved, there's little need for Flash now.</p>
<p>The full migration to HTML5 will likely result in more secure experiences and longer battery life. </p>
