  Never mind.......installed with a differant browser.

  ^^^^ Am I missing something? I thought the new version was standalone.

  It is, but you need a browser to download it.  ; )

  ...ruler... on PC version its easy to have one floating on screen but the new version is on game client that dosent allow anything over the game screen  thank you  jeff

  If you want to have things 'floating' on screen in the new version, you could try taking the game out of fullscreen, then follow THESE directions.

  Hi all,

          Some might know me most will not, i only play for fun and i try to help others, so to all of you Pc only players. I do try and play a game or two on our sister site, just to get ready for the big switch over, well i am getting to the point. 

  I am, thanks to WGT a T/C ok i can hit a odd ball or two, well i went into the dark side earlier and played a 3 hole game against a Master level 95 H/C 150. We both played off Black tee's and i managed to hit 3 birdies and still lost.

  All that i'm getting at is wgt do not use the same tier setting,

  Mick

  they have no choice there will be no Flash

  Don't be so quick to assume.....

   

   WGTChampion:

  The likelihood that dedicated Flash players find new browsers that continue to support flash is very high.

   

  Hmm best news I've herd yet!! From what Champ is saying "IF" we the players find a way to continue playing the "FLASH" (via other browsers or back doors or however we can) ...WGT will continue to have the flash version running as well??? 

  THIS IS OUTSTANDING NEWS!!!!

  I noticed the new version being ever so slightly slower after the update. Between tournaments and the new "searching for friend requests" or something to that nature... there is a slight delay in loading.

  Personally, I felt it was not that much of a difference.

   

  But, yes... you are not alone. I would assume that most people signing in to the new version will be experiencing the same thing

  Sorry Don but for me it is not slightly  otherwise i wouldnot have put this reaction on this forum. For me it is much much very much slower.

  The problem won't be finding a browser that still supports flash but rather finding an Operating System that still supports flash, Microsoft appears to be ready to completely remove flash from Windows and Apple never wanted flash on Macs. So what does that leave? Linux or something similar?

  I will be searching that as well but is there a date set by Microsoft for full flash removal??

  JD

  So I found this......

   

  Back to the Microsoft Lifecycle Policy home page

   

  Published: September 9, 2019

  Adobe will end support of Flash Player on December 31, 2020. Here’s what you can expect in the meantime for each Microsoft browser:

  In the next version of Microsoft Edge (built on Chromium), Flash will be disabled by default. However, users may re-enable it on a site-by-site basis. The timeline for Chromium-based browsers can be found here.

  Flash will not be disabled by default from Microsoft Edge (built on EdgeHTML) or Internet Explorer 11 prior to its removal by December of 2020.

  Flash will be completely removed from all browsers by December 31, 2020, via Windows Update.

   

  The key here being "via Windows update" so I will be NOT ALLOWING any future window updates ..See what that does??
