Adobe\u2019s Flash Player is yet another step closer to its grave as Google is making a shift to HTML5 by Default for its Chrome browser.<\/a><\/p>\n

Within the next few days, Google will be enabling the HTML5 by Default<\/strong>, a feature for the 1% of users who are currently running Chrome 55 Stable. HTML5 by Default will also be enabled for roughly 50% of Chrome 56 Beta users. The search engine giant is also aiming to make this feature available for stable built Chrome 56, when it launches in February<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Google will disable Flash on Chrome browser once it adopts HTML5<\/strong>. Users who still wish to see Flash content, will be able to do so by permitting Flash to run manually.<\/p>\n

From January 2017 onwards, Chrome will begin prompting users to run Flash on a site-by-site basis on first-time visits. By October 2017, all websites will require the users\u2019 permission before Flash is enabled<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
