    Post [Please look] Roms wont go through

    Everytime I try to download a ROM tit "Downloads" then when I click to open it, it goes to adobe flash player and says that it's not compatible I got my emulator from this site I would love to get the ROM from here as well. I'm, trying to download GBA ROMs and I'm downloading from Chrome. My CPU is old its a Windows made by DELL

    I would guess it is because of the capture that uses flash, simple way round that is to install the latest version of adobe flash to your system


    https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

    go to the above and install the browser plugin and then try our downloads section again, there should not be an open option anyway

    First thing, Chrome is a Google product so never use it. Especially for anything legally questionable like ROMs. Also avoid any browser made by Microsoft, as this is also not a privacy-conscious company.

    Please copy and paste a link you have tried to download into your next message. That way somebody can test it from their location and browser to see if they get better results.

    The fact that the link attempts to open in Flash player says you may have set a default behavior in your browser. I can change this in Firefox by going into my settings, clicking on the Applications tab, and finding a file type there. Once I click on the file type, I get a pull down menu with options and I would change it to "Always Ask" so I don't get unwanted browser behavior in the future. I'm not sure how different Chrome would be since it is a Google product and I never use it.


    Be afraid. Be very afraid.

    Google's Chrome works just fine

    The flash player is still required regardless of browser
