Just to add some words about my 'User experience' to this:
My nagging screens started the day the 'Update service' expired (in the begining of december 2020). I never got a "Don't show again" check box. Clicked them away for months, hoping to get a check box when a new version is released.
That hope vanished in march.
Then pulled the plug by blocking Xara with the Windows firewall as one of you nice guys recommended.
No nags since then.
Can't insert 'Font awesome' symbols anymore (along with anything else from the online content catalogue), but "SO WHAT"!
@Acorn you are very helpful as always, but this nag skin is getting skin deep.
In V17.1 an error message 'You need to be online to use this feature' is shown.
That was not the case in V12 I'm quite sure.
If it is important to anyone then download Microsoft's Character Map UWP (https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/p/ch...ot:overviewtab).
As Xara provides Fontawesome as a TT Font, you can use CharMap and FA with a search term or Unicode to access 704 characters.
You can copy it as a character or save as an SVG and drop onto your page.
I have always found this blocking very petty, which drove me to Xara Pro+.

I successfully blocked the unwelcome Magix intrusion by blocking the aforementioned service exe in my firewall software (Windows10FirewallControl)

@Jaydear I can tell your satisfaction from your avatar
I'm a happy chappie. I do like using the parts of XDP that are useful to me, but those darned popups spoil the vibe
You still look happy chappie
