None of this worked. Not even changing the system clock, or uninstalling the Adobe Flash update. I'm sure I followed it step by step. Windows 10 Home Single Language here.

I made a new workaround. Hope it helps.
I have tried it multiple times, but my feeble mind cannot comprehend how to work this. Another workaround is to install Flashpoint Launcher or play games that work on Chrome instead. There are already a lot of games on Flashpoint Launcher and the process is much simpler for people like me who are bad with technology.
Here is the DL for the Flashpoint Launcher:https://bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/
Hope this helps!

Does Newgrounds Player require the original Flash Player?
Yes, but not the browser one.
Awesome, just what I needed to get it to work - Thanks!
hey, i have a problem. there's already an mms in syswow, what do i do? do i replace it or just leave it be?
Just copy what's inside into the new mms if you want to keep your old config.
Hey Sonucais,
I have followed the steps above and got NG player working for the (demo) game you made.
I would like to have it also work for a Kakuro Game that I have been playing a few years ago.
The link: https://www.kongregate.com/games/nlween/kakuro
The SWF file that I see in the EMBEDSWF file (and that I therefore have downloaded) is: konduit_5e36cc9bd7533572759e07372fed1b04.swf
Everytime when I open this in the NG player I get stuck, seeing a darkgrey screen.
I have also tried your other method of opening the SWF file in the browser, like:
newgroundsplayer:752067
But I don't know which number this Kakuro 42 game refers to.
Can you help me?
You can't open kongregate games with the NG Player. This game won't work unless you enable somehow Flash in your browser. It was made to work on browsers, it won't let you in desktop player.
@HeroHeenie @Sonucais How do I reinstall Flash Player then? I uninstalled it before I found out about Newgrounds Player and heavily regret it.
Thank you!
I uninstalled the update and it worked, thanks a lot!
@KaruroUser @Sonucais So, what is the solution then?
Because if this game doesn't work on the NG player, what's the point of installing the NG player then?
Do you know of a way how I can play this game? That is, can you check it out for yourself and tell me which steps I need to make before I can play this game too?
Hey! Sorry to comment a month later, but I was wondering if this method could be used to unblock programs too. My screensaver is a flash program (support for it is long dead), and would love to keep it alive.
Haven't tried but...

Thanks! This helped a lot. I was really starting to panic when I couldn't get the Newgrounds Player to work and I feel a lot better now.
Hey, there was an update recently that removed flash player. Now everytime I try to launch NG Player it tells me to install flash to Internet Explorer, but then I’m told it can’t install because its already built in, so it just never works. How do I fix this?
I made a new workaround. Hope it helps.
Thanks so much
@Sonucais Just wanted a quick update from your situation, do you know why flash isn't working?
Yup, none of this works at all, cheers
At least one does for sure if you are using Windows.
@Wercurito @Sonucais Not a one. I'm not the first one on this boat, either, if other comments here are anything to go by.
@Sonucais Then I don't know what is going wrong, either I missed something key or opera isn't working with the file. Can you try and make a video or something?
You don't use Opera. You use Newgrounds Player. This post is all about NG Player.
@Sonucais Hi, I'm new to the site and am still having problems with Newgrounds Player. I'm running Windows 10 and have the latest version of Flash, but the Player does not work (I have Version 1.0.6 too). The SWF's I have are all saved offline, but loading them gives me the killswitch icon for Adobe. I downloaded the mms file and put them in both Adobe folders, but still the issue remains. Any thoughts would be appreciated! Do you know if anyone has made a video walkthrough either?
I solved this a tons of times. To load offline swf, dont use NG Player, use this instead. http://www.joycot.com/downloads/flash/flashplayer32.exe

@Sonucais Tried then uninstall flash player program, a bevy of other programs to erase any flash trace, then that 134.exe, then installing the newgrounds player, then enabling it, and trying crimson keep in firefox, and edge....no dice. I don't fancy using a different browser just for online .swf files, so I guess I just wait for a solution then?
And that's the "fun" part: waiting.....either way, hope a solution for all browsers (or at least the most used) is found one day. Stay safe out there and all that
