Re: Firefox and flash plugin

    I keep hitting this issue, too..

      The problem happens when you dnf update flash-plugin while firefox
      is running. Firefox writes its cache of plugin info,
      pluginreg.dat, on quit -- but it uses the in-memory info to do
      that. In the case above, the old version number is written to the
      cache file.

      
      To fix the problem, remove your pluginreg.dat file from
      ~/.mozilla/firefox/PROFILE.DIR/  (PROFILE.DIR is different on each
      system)

                  Firefox is complaining about flash not being up to
                  date.  I believe i have the latest of both.

                  
                  dnf list installed | grep -e firefox -e flash-plugin

                  firefox.x86_64 52.0-6.fc25                   @updates

                  flash-plugin.x86_64 25.0.0.127-release           
                  @adobe-linux-x86_64

                
            If you updated and not restarted Firefox, it will complain. 
            You have to restart Firefox after each new flash-plugin
            update.

            
            I *hate* that...
