Chrome is dropping support imminently (at the end of the year). It's been showing a warning and date about it for quite a while (if you still have it active).

By "dropping support", they mean "it won't work, at all". Set the clock forward on your PC to January 12th, 2021, and try using it.

See the link in my previous reply below.
You've had to manually "Allow" it for a while, if a site needs it.
But it's really Adobe dropping support of it, who announced it in 2017.

The warning says "Flash Player will no longer be supported after December 2020".
