Had To Switch To Firefox

What a wasted day yesterday was trying to figure out what was wrong with my Adobe flash player. Updating it, uninstalling, reinstalling, it made no difference. Noticed it mostly worked on Microsoft edge.
I came to the conclusion, must be something to do with Google Chrome also. Updated Google chrome, uninstalled, reinstalled all to no avail. I then lost all my passwords because I uninstalled Google Chrome and just did it without thinking. Meaning, I could not remember my yahoo mail password and they blocked me from my account for 12 hours.
Funny how such a small thing can ruin your day. Google did not mention anything to me and just tells me the plug-in cannot load. Maybe it is just some automatic system. I found that Google will block adobe flash and shockwave if they feel it is a security threat. I use a few sites that is essential to have adobe flash. I need to be able to see in order to get paid. Adobe and Google Chrome have always conflicted with how their two systems run.
Anyway, was told nothing I can do, but switch browsers and that is what I did. Adobe flash works fine on Firefox. Hopefully, this will help anyone if it ever happens to them.

I like Firefox, but have always liked Chromes layout and extensions better. Now I have to get used to Firefox.

@egdcltd I would not blame you there, I have my trust issues with them also. Kind of seem like a corporation that says do as we say, not as we do.

@crossbones27 Their "Don't be evil" motto has fallen by the wayside. In fact, I think one of the bosses said it was obsolete or something. How can not being evil be obsolete?

There you go. I was always wanted to try one of those. A little out of my price range though.
