I had seen this message plenty of times in the past and usually restarting Chrome would resolve the problem but this time it looked to be persistent even after a system reboot. You will have to manually check for updates at the Adobe’s Flash download page.On Saturday, I started to notice that logins to the vSphere Web (Flex) Client stopped working with Google Chrome. Upon a successful logon, it would immediately crash with "Shockwave Flash has crashed" message. Keep in mind that you will no longer get automatic updates with each Chrome upgrade. Once disabled, test to see if the problem is solved by using Adobe’s test page. We found out that if you disable the link for the Chrome’s internal installation that you will not encounter any future clashes with Shockwave Flash and your Google Chrome browser.įinally click on the Disable link for Chrome’s internal installation of Shockwave Flash. Once the section is open, there should be two entries – one for Chromes internal installation and one from the OS’s installation.

Personally I experienced lockups, unexpected crashes, lag spikes, “The following plug-in has crashed: Shockwave Flash” and the friendly “Awh Snap, something went wrong while displaying this webpage.” We now know what the problem is, so how can we fix this? Let’s Get Started With The Shockwave Flash Test
When this happens, Google Chrome and Adobe Flash cause a conflict that presents these problems. This is because Google Chrome comes jammed packed with so many features and plug-ins, in this case Shockwave Flash, creating duplicates of installations from the host system. However at times with old users, Google Chrome seems to unexpectedly crash and tends to present giant lag spikes.
Google Chrome is growing in popularity, with an increase of 84% in users over the last year.
