Stop all Ads PSP X4

Post by bfollett »

OK, I can't be the only one annoyed by this. Nearly every time I exit PSP X4 a dialog box pops up advertising something to buy. There's a check box to not show that ad again, but what good is that when it just pops up a different ad each time. How about an option to stop popping up ads completely! Anyone know if there is a way to do this? Corel must be aware that this is annoying to customers who have paid for a product.

Thanks,

Bob

Open up the Corel Guide dialog (Help -> Corel Guide)

There should be an icon in the corner that looks like gears. If you click on this it'll give you a menu with the "message preferences" option.

Deselect the "Keep me informed with the latest product related messages."

Well, I'll have to see if that suggestion works in the long run. It didn't work initially. I went into PSP and unchecked the option you mentioned and then exited PSP and sure enough a product ad popped up for X5. I guess there's a possibility that the setting for displaying the ads is read when the program is first opened rather than when exiting the program, so I'll have to wait and see if it really worked.

Hopefully Thank.
