Hello, since both Google and Firefox are killing off Flash in their browsers, do we still need update the flash player for these browsers (google/firefox) when updates for flash becomes available?

Flash is built into Windows 10 and does update. So yes, keep Flash updated until you / we receive more definitive notice

thanks John Hurst, my client doesn't run Windows 10 yet, still in POC phase at present in thier environment, we running a mixture of Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, and Internet Explorer is the standard browser across the environment, and google chrome and Firefox installed as secondary browsers in the SOE, Gogle Chrome and Firefox running the most up to date versions,
I'm getting contrasting information around this, my client is questioning why we still pushing flash updates (NPAPI and PPAPI) for these browsers, and is kinda implying that we don't need to do this,

I should have noted that since Windows 10 has built-in Flash, then Windows 8, 8.1, 7 and lower should continue to update Flash. It is still here and should be updated.
thanks John, still confusing my though, cause reading up on this, it states Chrome, Mozilla and even facebook has phased out use of Flash player, so im confused as to what that means for machines in our environment?
