I am using GeckoFX running on xulrunner 22.0, and it works fine. But when it comes to load a website with Flash, then it does not load the Flash content.

I have been trying to install the Flash Player plugin to the xulrunner but I've failed miserably.

The installation I followed was to copy the NPSWF32_11_7_700_224.dll file to the /plugins/ directory in the xulrunner directory. and the FlashPlayerApp.exe to the xulrunner directory itself. And still nothing.

Anybody knows how to get this thing working?

Try to disable blocklisting

GeckoPreferences.Default["extensions.blocklist.enabled"] = false;

  • You're a genius @vmas!!!, where did you get that super secret line of code?? I just added the line after the initialization of the Xpcom and it works. Thanks. Anyways, to anybody else dealing with this, there's **no** need to copy any file anywhere, just install the Flash Player (Shockwave) and xulrunner will load it using the HKLM/Software/MozillaPlugins/.

  • This is an old problem. I tested the Geckofx 18 with files from Firefox 18. In this case, you can see the placeholder that says: "This plugin is disabled". In Geckofx/Firefox-22 there is no placeholder, but works in a similar way. – vmas Aug 25 '13 at 09:46
