Our company has a site licence for Corel Draw. On evers start of Corel Draw I get this window:
We want to skip this completely and forever to fulfill the german laws according privacy. How can this be done?
In what world does that sound logical?? Corel is taking lessons from the Microsoft playbook and going for complete control of the user. I used to be pro-Corel all the way, but they're joining the opposition with this mandatory sign in. There's a reason I bought a stand-alone package instead of yielding to the subscription pressures of Adobe, Microsoft and Corel. Maybe I'll reload my earlier packages.

Yes, of course. Microsoft writes the rules.
As for the subject of Corel taking from M$oft playbook... There are many reasons I was reticent to even try CorelDraw. The first and foremost is that it s mostly (solely?) functional on Windows. Since I prefer an operating system rather than a poor Xwindows substitute, Windows had to be installed on one of my systems for the first time in almost 10 years. I mean, why does that XWindows substitute behave soo poorly and cause so much trouble as well as having even MORE privacy intrusion forced upon the ignorant users (like Cortana, Maps, Edge, and their other substandard bloatware apps).
I hope that some day in the near future Corel develop a native Mac version, not a Windows program running under Mac OS
Any real OS would be good. Ideally one that is natively POSIX compliant. OSX would be good. However, in the last 3 years; OSX has almost as buggy with app versionitus as is WinDoze. Ubuntu on whitebox hardware is more stable and secure than OSX now.
CorelDraw is "owned" by Microsoft (not sure of the percentage ownership) so it will always be Windows only.
