Windows 10: Today's Adobe Flash Player Update KB4580325 ???

Today, WU gave me KB 4580325, an update for Adobe Flash Player. WU downloaded and installed it, despite the fact I do not have Flash Player anywhere on my system. While Flash Player somehow appears in Program and Features, Geek and basic scans as well as drilling down in IE do not find any evidence of Flash Player. How does WU install an update to a program which does not exist on my machine? I am running 2004

Hi,

Does Windows 10 now manages all the security updates for Adobe Flash player?

Is this true?

I realize that you are unable to find Adobe Flash player in Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge. I will try to help you with this issue.

  Press Windows key + X and click on Programs and Features.

  You will get the list of all installed programs on the PC.
