for oldest game is worked very thank you

Funcionou! Para quem tá em dúvida, é só clicar no négocio de extenções, clicar no ícone do F e depois clicar no ON. O único problema é que a maioria dos jogos flash online usavam o Ruffles, e o Ruffles não consegue carregar os jogos por que vários jogos que usam flash e Ruffles sairam do ar
