Hello everyone. I have only just started using antiX-15 64bit and everything is going really well except when i open Firefox and go to say YouTube i am informed that the adobe flash plugin is vulnerable and should be updated. But when i go to Add-ons manager and click on the update link it will still not update. Could someone help me out here please. Thanks

Root terminal should be opened

Code: Select all

update-flashplugin-nonfree --install
but before that

Code: Select all

apt-get update
first if you have not updated packages yet. There is another way. Maybe someone else will post it.
Just the quickest way for me is what I am posting.

I never listen to nagging. Even at home. If it works. I am a happy camper. Youtube switched to html5 I thought anyways.

Hi rokytnji

First thing i did immediately after installing antiX-15 was to download and install all updates. Just didn't know how to update flash. Thanks for the help and for taking the time out to reply.
