or JK for short…

If you are trying to run a .swf directly from a standalone FlashPlayer or via a browser that trys to contect to a server you will usually get a dialog box that will take you to this webpage:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.html

If you do not have an internet connection (like for a kiosk) you are stuck.

Solution – Trust Files

1. Create a file in a text editor with the extension .cfg

2. For PC save this file in this location C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerTrust or For MAC save this file in this location /Library/Application Support/Macromedia/FlashPlayerTrust

Note: If the folders above do not exist just create them.

3. Type the folder name where the .swf file is located if you need multiple locations add them on a new line. You can target the .swf directly but using the folder name will trust all .swf files it contains.

4. Once saved – the security settings window should not show up when running the .swf file, if it does, double check paths and restart computer

so for a PC with a .swf file located at c:\myApplication\ you will have a .cfg file it the above location with simply the line in it;

c:\myApplication\
