What is going on, I think, is the *detection* being broken which is very likely due to the fix for #17207. The Flash Player itself is still working for me, e.g. on Adobe's test site.
It's unfortunate that this did not get caught in our alpha series but here we are. I guess providing a preference allowing to disable the fix for #17207 might be worth it given that a number of users wouldn't be using Tor Browser otherwise or would be trying to shoot themselves in the foot with having different browsers opened simultaneously.https://gitlab.torproject.org/legacy/trac/-/issues/17877Tor Browser 5.0.5 is using the wrong Mozilla build tag2020-06-15T23:31:52ZGeorg KoppenTor Browser 5.0.5 is using the wrong Mozilla build tagIt seems Mozilla decided to make a second build directly on the release day and put that out immediately without almost no QA.

We should investigate what this means for our extensions and report back to Mozilla in order to make sure our requirements are taken into account while designing the APIs.https://gitlab.torproject.org/legacy/trac/-/issues/15646KeyboardEvent may allow fingerprinting of keyboard layout2020-06-15T23:34:27ZcypherpunksKeyboardEvent may allow fingerprinting of keyboard layoutE.g. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent/code#Code_values_on_Windows_%28When_scancode_is_available%29 says:
