The reason I’m not going with Adobe Illustrator is because it’s ridiculously overpriced.

No, my problems with Corel Draw are not functionality I’ve been using it for well over 20 years. I need to upgrade it because I’m upgrading to Windows 11, which I’m not doing because I want to. So I have to use the most recent version of Corel to get it to run. However I dislike the company because they put nagware everywhere. And every time you shut the program off you get a pop up trying to sell you something. Their customer service is worse than non-existent, but that doesn’t bother me cuz I don’t need it in that regard.

I wo Der if there is a registry hack,that can turn off,the nagging from Corel? Sometimes all it takes is shutting off a certain process in the processes app. But sometimes doing so renders the program unusable till you turn it back on

That really is awfully convenient for all of the companies involved, isn't it? One might think that it is planned that way or something.

Install VMware and run the old version in a virtual machine. Even compatibility mode in Windows might do the trick.
