In order to allow flash content, it needs to be added to the iecompatdata.xml file in %HOMEPATH%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IECompatData\ as part of the under flash>domain.

This works fine for websites, but how can I add an exception for local files?

I tired <domain>C:\</domain> but that didn't work. Is this possible at all?

What local files? SWFs? – Karan Nov 20 '12 at 20:28
yes, local swf. – Daniel Nov 20 '12 at 22:36
because WindowsRT won't let you run non app store software. It fould require an upgrade to Win 8 – Daniel Nov 20 '12 at 23:49
Ah, didn't see RT mentioned in the title above. Will check for a working solution, if it exists. – Karan Nov 20 '12 at 23:52
I decided to give up and return the tablet – Daniel Nov 21 '12 at 3:33
