It's pretty darn annoying when I start up PSPP and it gives me a damn commercial, and the "do not show this message again" checkbox is completely ignored.

That can be frustrating. You can let Corel know here https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PSPX4
PSPX9 | PSP2020 | PSP2021| PSP2022 | PSP2023 & PhotoMirage installed; PSPX | PSPX2 thru PSP2019 owned but not installed

Huh. When I went there, it asked for the exact version, and I started it up again to check, and this time, finally, the ad didn't appear.

It may be tied to restarting your computer. Don't restart your PC and no ad, restart your PC and there's an ad the next time.

You can also try deleting the messages folder located at "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Corel" then disable the Message preferences from the Corel Guide.
