I know I can disable Flash in Edge and individually in the other browsers.
However I don't want any trace to remain of Flash on my system.
I've googled all around, but nowhere can I get a tool or tutorial that will fully remove all traces of Flash.
I cannot tell you how much I loath that piece of malware.
How do I completely and permanently remove all traces of Flash from Windows 10?
This answer helps with the files, but I'm still stuck on the registry keys.

You can only disable it not remove it: http://www.howtogeek.com/222275/how-to-uninstall-and-disable-flash-in-every-web-browser/

Not possible! Remove edge if that's not enough. That will disable the Windows Store though. – Ramhound – 2016-10-09T21:35:57.083
2@Ramhound, there is no such thing as not possible. You can take ownership of the files and delete them one by one. There is a way. I'm just hoping for a better way than taking ownership of every single flash file on the system and deleting them one at a time and then wading through the registry to do the same. – Johan - reinstate Monica – 2016-10-09T21:41:04.557
Flash is built into the Edge engine... – Ramhound – 2016-10-09T21:53:56.687
1No it is not. There are flash files on the system and in the registry that can be deleted. Without those it will not work. I just want these to be gone and stay gone. The only problem is that these are owned by TrustedInstaller. – Johan - reinstate Monica – 2016-10-09T21:58:58.477
