Hi,

I am trying to make flash running since a long time on my Chromium on MAC OS X. But it doesn't work. I tried a lot of forums and instructions.

Situation now:
- I deinstalled all the Chromium data of my MAC OS X 10.9.5
- I installed the newest Chromium version 61.0.3141.0
- I installed the newest Flash on my MAC, NPAPI-Plug-In-Version 26.0.0.131, PPAPI-Plug-In-Version 26.0.0.131

What I have tried:
A. I activated flash in the Chromium-Settings
C. I tried the instruction of Julia Casado in this discussion https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msg/chromium-discuss/ftGxvj9TcjE/WWzLt1qGEAAJ Does not chance nothing.
D. I tried the steps on the following websites: 
and some more...

Things that are strange:
1. If I go to "chrome://version/" I have the following Information about Flash:
"26.0.0.131 /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/PepperFlashPlayer/PepperFlashPlayer.plugin"
But I want to use the normal Flash of Adobe via PPAPI. I don't now why it ist that strange. Also this folder does not exist in my MAC, the Folder "Internet Plug-Ins" is empty. Maybe I just have to fix this, but I don't know how.
2.  If I go to "chrome://components" I have no entry with Adobe Flash or similar things. But there should be something like that. (Because of the new version, I can not use chrome://plugins). Why is Chromium not finding the Flash Plugin?
3. If I go in MAC OS X to the Flash Plugin, it says, that the settings are only for Safari and not for Chromium. I should klick this link to get more info: https://helpx.adobe.com/en/flash-player/kb/changing-flash-player-settings-chrome.html But this link does not help me.

So, maybe someone can help me, or give me hints to solve my problem.

Thank you!
Timmy
