While, Vmware developers working hard to get rid of Adobe Flash in their products

Sometimes you are trying to make Windows Server 2012 R2 to be a local machine for some admin tasks in Vmware VCenter and you need Adobe Flash!

There are 2 ways:

1. "Old school"

You can't use Flash, unless your server has the 'Desktop Experience' feature installed. The quickest way to do this is right click the PowerShell Icon on the Task bar > Run As Administrator.

1.1. Execute the following command;
Install-WindowsFeature Desktop-Experience

1.2 Reboot the server :-)
1.3 The server will reboot !TWICE! and it may take a little while.
Once back in Windows I suggest you run Windows Update, (to get the most up to date Flash version) >Windows Key+R > Execute the following;
%windir%explorer.exe shell:::{36eef7db-88ad-4e81-ad49-0e313f0c35f8}















1.4 Flash enabled vSphere Web Client.

2. My favorite way :-)
Just install Google Chrome.
Works like a charm.
