Remarks:  

.

1)  It is my understanding that Adobe plans to DEactivate the direct download links.   They worked for me this morning, albeit it took a LONG time for the download to complete.   If you find that the above links aren't working for you, you should download fromhttps://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/;

2) As of this moment, it appears that the embedded Flash ActiveX for Edge in Win10 remains at 20.0.0.272.
