This step-by-step guide will take you through the process to completely uninstall Adobe Flash Player from your Mac. The regular removal of unwanted and unused software will clean up your Mac and keep it running smoothly.

What is Adobe Flash Player and Why Remove it?

Flash Player is a browser plugin that enables the user to stream and watch video (on sites such as YouTube), viewing multimedia content, and interacting with RIA (Rich Internet Applications).

As of 1 January 2021, Adobe will not be offering and updating Flash Player anymore. Web browsers will rather be making use of the advancements of HTML5, WebGL, and WebAssembly, therefore negating the need for Flash Player.

Method 1. Using Adobe Flash Player Install Manager

By far the most effective and cleanest way to remove Flash Player is by making use of the Installation Manager. This simple process will ensure all relevant Flash Player files are removed.

Locate Adobe Flash Player Install Manager on your Mac

1. From the Menu bar at the top of the screen, click on Go and select Utilities. If you can’t find Utilities, it also appears in the Application folder.

2. In the ​Utilities​ folder, find and double click on the Adobe Flash Player Install Manager application.

Uninstall Flash Player

1. Click on Uninstall

2. If prompted, enter your password to allow the uninstallation and click on Install Helper.

4. After the uninstaller runs, a window will popup that confirms that Adobe Flash Player has been removed from your computer.

2. Right-click on the ​install_flash_player_osx.dmg​ file and select ​Move to Trash​.

Method 2. App Cleaner and Uninstaller

One of my favorite applications for my Mac is App Cleaner and Uninstaller. Not only does it assist you to quickly uninstall unwanted applications, but it also helps you find remaining files that are hard to find.

Launch App Cleaner and Uninstaller

Open the App Cleaner and Uninstaller App from the Applications folder by double-clicking on it.

Remove Flash Player files

1. Once opened, find Flash Player in the left-hand pane and click on it.

2. On the top of the right-hand pane, check the box next to Select All. Then click on ​Remove​ in the bottom right.

3. A window will appear to review and confirm the selection to be removed. If you are happy with the selection, click on Remove in the bottom right to proceed.

4. App Cleaner & Uninstaller confirms that the files selected were successfully removed.

5. Unfortunately, all files related to Adobe Flash player could not be removed, because we are running the free version. Upgrading to the Pro version will allow you to remove it completely.

However, App Cleaner & Uninstaller does show in which directories the remaining relevant files are stored. Similar to Step 3, select Flash Player from the left pane.

6. While hovering over the first file (Flash Player.prefPane) in the right pane, click on the blue arrow icon.

7. This will bring up the specific directory for the file selected. Right-click on the file and select Move to Trash​.

8. Repeat the step for the remaining files in App Cleaner and Uninstaller under Flash Player. This should remove the Adobe Flash Player application on the left pane.

Remove Flash Player Install Manager files

1. Now, still in the left pane of App Cleaner and Uninstaller, scroll up and find Adobe Flash Player Install Manager. Select all files by checking the box next to Select All in the right pane and click Remove on the bottom right.

2. Review and confirm the selected files by clicking on Remove in the next window.

3. A window appears confirming the removal of the selected files.

4. Hover over the last remaining file, Adobe Flash Player Install Manager in the right pane, and click on the blue arrow icon.

5. This will open the Utilities folder in Finder showing the Adobe Flash Player Install Manager application. Right-click on the application and select Move to Trash.

6. To complete the removal of Flash Player, go to Finder and in the Search field, type “install_flash_player”.

7. Right cling on the install_flash_player_osx.dmg file and select Move to Trash.
