Solved Plugin Needed to View Shockwave Flash

[brodemi]

I used to be able to view swf files w/irfanview (a long time ago) but now I can't and I can't find a plug in. How can I view these files?
Thank you!

Flash.dll is the one that you need. Check first in Help, Installed Plugins. If its not listed, make sure you have installed the latest plugins for IrfanView 4.32

AFAIK you don't need to download anything extra — it should be in the main plugins installer. Check that you installed to the right folder.

I reinstalled irfanview but it still wouldn't open the swf files. When I installed I chose associate only image files, but I also checked swf files. I still couldn't open the swf files. I then went to install plugins and that worked: now I can open the swf files.
