I wonder if you could download the same version of Firefox in "portable"
form?

https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/legacy

If that still works with the Flash Player plugin, that would allow you to
keep your main installation up to date.

Personally, I've uninstalled the Flash Player plugin completely, and I
haven't run into any strange situations where I wished I still had it. I've
been using the standalone debug executable of Flash Player instead, which
you can still download from Adobe, and that's been fine for my needs. Is
there any particular reason why you need the plugin specifically?
