I want to add some websites in allowed list for flash by default(like in the screenshot below)

these websites always allow to run flash on startup, probably developers added those for a reason and I wanna add some of my frequently visited websites into it so I don't have to bother giving permission to them every time I go to the aforementioned website.
I think the setting file is saved in appdata\local\slimjet\userdata but what next?
please help.

I may be wrong, but I don't think we can do that any more.

What about the extension Policy Control? It allows control of 11 items, including plugins.

That could be worth checking out. I think it is (or used to be possible) to do things with adobe flash using policy. I am not sure about doing it that way for pepper flash. That would be a boon for many Slimjet users to be made aware of it if it is possible.

I think that only works until the next reboot.

See this forum thread, there have been problems with the allowed site not sticking for the next visit, I'm pretty sure that stimulated this instant thread.

Ahh gotcha so locale is right its just a update to google chrome change in policy , i don't use flash anymore so haven't really took any notice of flash related news in browsers. So i'm taking the flag that allowed the work around it has been removed now by google as to further push the rest of the web into not using flash which adobe is ending in 2020 ...Saw a quick reddit post with a apparent solution .unclear if it works link here
https://www.reddit.com/r/chrome/comment ... ble_flash/
Update/create registry keys here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\PluginsAllowedForUrls]
"1" = "
https://server1"
"2" = "
https://server2"
etc.
The values 1, 2, etc are Strings. I did this for my vcenters and it worked, so as example: "1"="
