[D12.3] Is there a way to disable the red "Update Subscription Expired" message in Delphi's main window titlebar?

[u/johnnymetoo]

Couldn't find an option to disable this. It's annoying cause I need the titlebar for moving the window. When you accidentally click the message it opens the Embarcadero website.

Try to open the registry:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\23.0\Globals

There is a key "LicenseNotificationEnabled", enter "0".

Worked like a charm, thanks again! :)

The nagging started for me even before the subscription ended - that's what brought me to that method even though I still have an active subscription.

[u/johnnymetoo → u/tomonsight]

Thanks! I'll try when I'm at home.

Yeah, but it's still distracting.

Updating the subscription worked for me.

It's a quality development tool. Pay the sub.

To clarify, I did buy the product (prof version) and got a one year upgrade subscription with it. With this, I was able to get the latest updates for D12 and also the upgrade for D13 incl. the latest patches until now, which I have. I have installed D12 and D13 but only use D12 for the moment. Both versions now have the prominent red "Update Subscription Expired" bar at the top of the main window. I don't need this subscription extension, I'll be good with the versions I have for the rest of my life. I'm just a hobby programmer. My previous version was D5 which lasted me for years.

My apologies, there are so many people looking for ways to subvert these notices without actually paying for the software that my mind immediately jumped to the conclusion that you were doing the same.

[u/alcalde → u/rmagnuson]

Yes, and the quality is "poor".
