Q: Since update with OS 10.11.6, flash not working properly

Just got a new Mac Book Pro, new to mac in general. Had a video to play on a website but wasn't working, downloaded Chrome, worked fine. Then did the update for OS 10.11.6 (no problem during the update), and the video won't work (Flash unable to load plug-in it says). Made sure plug-in was enabled in my Chrome. Tried to download Flash itself, tried to delete Chrome and Flash and download Chrome again, nothing's working. Now for an obscure reason, it's working... What is (and was) happening... Anyone has an idea? Thx!

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

    - Chrome has Flash built in.

    - Safari does not come with Flash and to use Flash with Safari you have to download and install Flash

     

    Thus, that is why Chrome worked and Safari worked after you downloaded and installed Flash. Just make sure yo always get Flash from Adobe's site.  Once you install Flash from Adobe it also installed a Flash preference pane in System Preferences and yo can update Flash from there
