How do I watch demo video without flash player on my company PC?

I am new to MATLab and trying to watch some demo videos but it is not working. It is saying "This video, which will play in your default web browser, requires Macromedia Flash Player (version 5 or later)". I am on company's laptop and not allowed to install anything external. Is there any other way to view these videos - can I open it with window media player etc?

Thanks for your help.

Let me try. What is the URL of the video that you can't play?

The video must be very old. Macromedia is very old. Adobe acquired it in 2005 (16 years ago). And Adobe "retired" Flash on Dec. 31, 2020.

You'd be best off upgrading or calling tech support.

The getting started with MATLAB content has moved oniine. The main getting started page for MATLAB (similar to your screenshot) can be found here: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/getting-started-with-matlab.html

For a more updated introduction, consider going through the various free, ineractive self-paced courses (e.g. MATLAB Onramp).
