SWF Player is a program for Windows with which you can enjoy Flash video content without having a network connection. It opens multimedia items with SWF extension quickly and is also capable of reading metadata tags from any file header.
Goal
Since many modern devices do not support Flash format by default, there has been a decline in its presence on the Internet. With this helpful tool, you are able to playback clips created with Macromedia Flash. It could be said that SWF is still a viable format, due to the large quantity of items encoded using it.
The graphical interface is fairly straightforward, but that appears to have been done on purpose. The simple appearance of the player reduces the size of the installation file, which makes the freeware solution more portable.
Play Flash videos
After launching the application, all you need to do is click on the File menu and choose the Open option from the drop-down list. When you select the SWF file, the utility will display the metatags in a dedicated message box. Thus, you can see detailed information about imported items.
By pressing the Play button, you are able to enjoy the desired Flash content. In case it is a game, you can play it. If it is a movie, you may watch it, pause, and resume. Another useful feature is the ability to toggle full screen mode via the F11 hotkey.
