So Chris has confirmed it is Magix adding code we didn't ask for or know what it is doing but regardless it isn't doing it the way it was expected.

I had hoped the other Magix interference around the delay with "Adding colours to document" for v16.3 might have packed its bags, but sadly no.

Might as well just have intellisense back again too to complete the hat-trick.

Really disappointed with the lack of care. I do hope there is a robust service level agreement over this between Magix and Xara.

I am not going to try this myself but I believe the downloads from:


bypass the Magix loader, so a re-install might get rid of the nagging as well.
I am keeping my machine in its current state so I can look into things a tad more carefully.
