Adobe Flash Player 10.3 Beta Finally Brings Its Own Prefpane To Mac

Adobe’s Flash Player is a bizarre, convoluted product, to say the least. In fact, it’s about as un-Mac-like a piece of software as you can possibly imagine.

For example, did you know that if you want to change your Flash Player’s settings on the Mac, there’s no easy way of doing so locally? Instead, you have to visit a special web link to change your privacy, storage, microphone or web cam settings, or even flush out your cache.

Ridiculous, right? Thankfully, Adobe seems to have taken one more small step to get in line with best Mac practices with the latest beta of Flash Player 10.3, which adds a prefpane to your Mac’s System Preferences panel allowing you to change Flash Player’s settings locally, including Storage, Camera and Mic, Playback and more.

It certainly took you long enough, Adobe, If you want to take Flash Player 10.3 Beta for a spin, you can grab it for Mac here
