Voxera108838yI think its intentional and have been like this a while.
Think latest FF also stopped supporting it.
NPAPI is an old netscape plugin architecture that do not work with multithreaded, or maybe it was a security issue. -
Chrome ended support for NPAPI long time ago. You can enable again by a hack. Search google

Nope! There's nothing wrong. They have intentionally removed npapi support for different reasons. Oracle wants you to use a browser that still supports this deprecated and unsafe technology. In other words, they want you to use a browser that there IS something wrong with.

@Voxera was because of security because it had direct access to system calls I think

Sackkobold48y@filthyranter I'm just here to read your comment, so I don't have to write the same, thank you!

Nothing wrong with Chrome they just don't support those apis. Even Firefox dropped the support in Firefox 52. If you really need Java in a browser you need to use internet explorer

C0D4644178y@inpothet on second thought don’t take my advise and search for the flags
Looks like your opening IE.
