The flash player in your browser is required to play the multimedia elements of the Internet resources. Sometimes the Adobe Flash Player plug-in crashes, which is preceded by a long “freeze” of the web page or the computer as a whole. In general, problems with the flash player are one of the most common problems, but at the moment, with the release of updates, working with it has become much more convenient.
If suddenly, when you open the flash player in the browser, the video playback starts to "slow down", press pause and wait until the media file or part of it is downloaded to your computer. Make sure that any program that requires a lot of system resources for its work was not running on your computer.
Also, online video playback may "hang" due to the parallel download of another video in a nearby browser window or tab. The same applies to the various flash games that have gained immense popularity among computer users since the advent of high-speed internet. Also, when loading such games, problems most often arise provided that its menu or the game process itself includes many elements for display and for correct operation. The resources of the video card and the Internet are sometimes simply not enough for smooth playback of multimedia content.
If your flash player starts to freeze under other circumstances, be sure to check for updates for this software product. Most often, users integrate Adobe Flash Player into their browser, if you have one installed, check the update at https://www.adobe.com/ru/. Also pay attention to special icons in the notification area, which may contain messages about the availability of updates for your software product on the server.
The flash player may also be incorrectly installed on your computer, or, over time, its unpacked installation files may be damaged. In this case, try to download the latest version of this program from the official website of the developer and install the player with the replacement of system files.
