How can I install Adobe flash player on 18.04 LTS? I have tried downloading it from the Adobe Flash official site where I select the Ubuntu/Debian version, but it says chose an application to open the download link, and the only option that appears is Apt-URL. When I select it I get a popup saying

the channel bionic partner is unknown

Enabling the partner repository doesn't help.

How can I install Adobe flash on 18.04?

    In what circumstance you need that? In what browser? –  May 23 '18 at 07:42
  • I ran into this problem, and karel's answer to the linked post fixed it. Just close the Adobe page, do the installation as explained in that answer, then restart the browser. – Zanna Jun 06 '18 at 16:04

Yesterday, I installed Flash Player on my PC and it works in latest Firefox.

I suggest you run this command in your terminal:

sudo apt install adobe-flashplugin

    In order for this command to work, one has to check the "Canonical Partners" box in the Other Software tab in the Software & Updates. See also: https://askubuntu.com/a/990925/384849 – HD189733b Dec 10 '19 at 21:46
