The Adobe Flash Player Update Service (FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe) is the Flash Player auto-update service that runs as a service and a scheduled task and used to automatically check for new releases. The setup package generally installs about 201 files and is usually about 45.62 MB (47,833,264 bytes). The primary executable is named flashutil32_21_0_0_157_plugin.exe. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version).
Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. During setup, the program registers itself to launch on boot through a Windows Schedule Task in order to automatically start-up. The most common release is 21.0.0.213, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. Adobe Flash Player 21 NPAPI is a software program developed by Adobe Systems.
