Google on Thursday released a Chrome upgrade that integrates the Flash Player plug-in into the browser by default.
The release (version 5.0.375.86) is now available on the stable version of Chrome for Linux, Mac, and Windows, Google wrote in a blog post. The move comes just one day after Google released the same upgrade for the beta channel.
Google also fixed five security issues.
Google first announced plans to integrate Flash Player into its browser in March. At that point, the Flash Player plug-in was made available only to those using the developer version, with plans to extend it to the stable version in the future.
Google said at the time that Adobe's Flash Player is "the most widely used Web browser plug-in" but the traditional browser plug-in interface is "is loosely specified, limited in capability and varies across browsers and operating systems, [which] can lead to incompatibilities, reduction in performance and some security headaches."
As a result, Google worked with Adobe, Mozilla, and the larger community to develop a next-generation browser plug-in API.
As CNet notes, those who do not want the Flash plug-in can type "about:plugins" into the Chrome address bar and click the "disable" button to turn it off.
