chrome://plugins not exist now in Canary; how to disable adobe? when go to https://www.adobe.com/fr/software/flash/about/; flash is enabled! With 56.0.2924.59; chrome enable adobe flash plugins after restart (see it in chrome://plugins) Option in settings seems to not change now; perhaps one chrome version force it by default in "execute important..(recommanded)" and because sync my settings and not update chrome in all computer in same time, it return to "execute important..(recommanded)"

Can confirm, if I disable flash in chrome://plugins and then restart, flash gets automatically re-enabled. I used to keep it disabled for at least one year, the issue appeared after I updated to 56: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.76 Safari/537.36

By the way, I disable flash from chrome://plugins because this way some sites are forced to display html5 videos instead of having a square asking me to enable flash, like this one for example: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-carl-bernstein-republicans-emotional-voter-fraud-inauguration-count-a7547301.html

I have the same issue - flash is re-enabled after restart. Apparently devs are in the process of removing chrome://plugins so I doubt this is going to be fixed only to be removed afterwards. The new way to disable flash is to block it in settings and enable a "prefer html" flag: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=673199#c28
