Swfs not opening, downloading instead | Opera forums


Neither option fixes the issue- Chrome keeps downloading the files (even when the file I'm telling it to open is on-disk to begin with) instead of playing them. Sep 06,  · Though not an exhaustive list of user-reported problems, we’ve read user reports indicating that Chrome downloads SWF files instead of playing them, notification blocking doesn’t work, problems. If you visit a SWF directly, it will not ask you to click-to-run, it will simply download it instead. If you were to go to chrome://plugins/ and check "Always allow to run" it would play the SWF as previously normal in the browser directly, without the HTML wrapper.

chrome downloading swf files instead of playing

Jun 15,  · For the last couple months I’ve been having issues playing SWF files in Chrome on my Mac. Before the SWF would play when I drag and drop them into the browser, or right click and open them with Chrome. Instead, Chrome started prompting to download the SWF again — very unhelpful. After digging a ton I found the answer on Google Product blogger.com: Joe Duncko. This would cause Opera to embed the swf file with the flash player so that the swf would play inside Opera. AFAIK, Chromium-based browsers like Chrome and current Opera don't do that and just offer to download the file. But, you said it worked fine a few days ago, so I don't know. Neither option fixes the issue- Chrome keeps downloading the files (even when the file I'm telling it to open is on-disk to begin with) instead of playing them.
