Hello,

In order to install the latest Flash Player in your Linux distribution, you must have downloaded the right installer and run its installation with root permission.

1. Go to Adobe Flash Player download page.

2. Select “Linux (64-bit)” or “Linux (32-bit)” from the list of operating system.

3. From version selection, select “Flash Player for other Linux (.rpm) 32-bit”.

4. Click “Download now” from the bottom-right corner.

5. Download the RPM package.

6. Start “Terminal’ by pressing “Ctrl + Alt + T”.

7. Run the following command to install “RPM to DEB” converter for Linux Mint.
sudo apt-get install alien dpkg-dev debhelper build-essential

8. Now, convert the downloaded RPM into DEB. Run this command:
sudo alien packagename.rpm

9. Install the generated DEB package with following command:
sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb

Now, Flash Player will be installed in your Linux Mint.
