Win 10 and Adobe Air

Post by Country Joe-PG- »

When I upgrade to Windows 10, it uninstalled Java and installed Adobe Air.
In reading about Adobe Air it appears to do the same as Java did. My guess is it's a bit more secure than Java was.

I went to update Adobe Air last week and it wouldn't update for some reason after several tries so I uninstalled it.

After some reading I've found it to be 50/50 on whether I actually need it.
So far nothing has prompted me to install it on the sites I've visited so my question to those who have Windows 10 is:

Should I reinstall Adobe Air?

Thanks,
CJ

I forgot to mention that Microsoft Edge does not support Java, I use Opera for my browser.

Yeah, it installed Adobe Air when I did the upgrade. So far no big deal that it's gone.
