Hoow can I get Flash Player to work always in Edge?

Laptop running Win 10.  Edge says Adobe Flash Player is allowed.  Web Pages  and games say Flash Player not installed.   Click on Puzzle Piece and the only choice is allow Flash Player once.  No allow Flash Player always choice.   Tried to go into "gpedit.msc", but it says gpedit.msc not recognized as external or internal command.   Ho can I repair this?

If it won't run in Edge and everything else is working properly, it is not compatible with Edge. Run the games in Internet Explorer.

gpedit.msc is not a part of Windows 10 Home

John.   I cannot install IE.  It says there is a newer version installed (Edge).  I installed Chrome and Firefox.

Sure you can . IE is built into Windows. Control Panel, Programs and Features, Windows Features and make sure IE has been enabled.

Find it in the Start Menu.

Edge does not support Flash

Look in Windows Features left side of Programs  and Features. That is where IE is and it is for sure there unless your system is damaged

I have had IE in Windows 10 for years

Here is what you are looking for in Control Panel, Programs and Features (or Apps and Features if you prefer)

Did you make sure that Flash content is enabled for the site(s) in question? You will find that you have to do this in order to get things to work sometimes, (Yes, the error that you need to install is misleading sometimes)

See the section on enabling/running Flash content from this page: https://www.digitalcitizen.life/how-unblock-flash-content-microsoft-edge-and-manage-way-it-loaded
