Update service reminder

[Acorn]

Acorn,

Sorry to say, but this does not work. Xara updates itself in spite of this. What I have found partially effective, is to start the program using a command file like this:

del /Q C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Xara\XtremePro\11\WebFi les\ENG\*.*
nircmd exec2 max "C:\Program Files\Xara\Xara Designer Pro X11" "C:\Program Files\Xara\Xara Designer Pro X11\DesignerPro.exe"

where the first line deletes the contents of the nag folder and the second line uses Nirsoft's Nircmd utility (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html) to start Xara without a visible command window and in the folder specified before the EXE command line proper. To use this, change paths and filenames according to your own setup. In spite of this, the nag may show occasionnally, but keeps away most of the time.

lex, great approach but rather drastic, don't you think @Xara?
