So I go to log into Habbo to be told my browser is unsupported.

NPAPI support has endedIn the past, many plugins were developed using an older system called NPAPI. Today fewer sites are using NPAPI plugins and they can sometimes cause security risks on websites.
To make browsing with Chrome safer, faster, and more stable, we’re ending support for NPAPI plugins (http://blog.chromium.org/2014/11/the-final-countdown-for-npapi.html) with Chrome version 42.


How to temporarily enable NPAPI pluginsIf you must use a NPAPI plugin, there’s a temporary workaround that will work until Chrome version 45 is released later in 2015:


Open Chrome.
In the address bar at the top of the screen, type chrome://flags/#enable-npapi
In the window that opens, click the link that says Enable under the Enable NPAPI flag.
In the bottom left corner of the page, click the Relaunch Now button.

After the release of Chrome version 45, you’ll need to use an alternate web browser to load content that requires a NPAPI plugin.


Which plugins are supportedPlugins that use a newer, more secure system called Pepper API (PPAPI) will continue to work, including those that come with Chrome, like Adobe Flash and PDF Viewer. If Flash or PDF doesn’t automatically load, make sure that you have the PPAPI plugin version enabled in Chrome.
Plugins that use NPAPI, including Silverlight, Java, and Unity, won’t work

So looks like I need to find a new browser soon, Anyone else getting this?

I did this a while back because my Silverlight stopped working! I'm not gonna update my Chrome when it comes to it - but surely they can't just end it fully forever because so many people use the plugins and stuff they'll lose a huge amount of users, surely?

I'd have thought they'd either enable support again or the developers of especially the bigger apps will migrate to the new PPAPI system soon!
