I use Google Chrome...and I have been getting a bunch of "Flash has Crashed" messages that interrupt what I am doing.

I've tried to understand some of the stuff offered on the Internet for correcting the problem...but I am a clod.

Can anyone here offer an easy to understand method of correcting the problem? Not sure what other info you need, but just ask. I really want this to stop.

@Frank Apisa,
This works for some of the problems, but won't stop them completely. The problem is a memory leak in Flash.

Navigate here: chrome://plugins/

Scan down the list and look for something with the words pepper flash.

It will look something like this: Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\PepperFlash\11.5.31.138\pepflashplayer.dll

Click the blue "disable" link immediately below it.

Close the tab and resume browsing.

That should do it. Pepper Flash is Google's way of adding security to Flash but it causes more problems than it solves.

@Frank Apisa,
Frank and Butrflynet, I'm having the same problem. It started after Crome sent a message about an upgrade or something. I'll try too and let you know.
