VP23. I keep getting an ad for color grading in VP23 tutorial. I have selected don't show this ad again, but it keeps popping up. I don't want to disable ads altogether. How do I get this ad to stop showing up?

Still happening. I've already told the program TWICE to stop showing me this ad. It's getting frustrating.

That does not seem to work indeed, I also got annoyed by it to no end!
However, there is a more permanent way in the preferences:

Thanks. I don't want to do that because I would not be notified about updates.

@anthony-chiappette You can always use "check for software updates" in the help menu. It is not like they update every week, nor even every month...

This is true. 23 seems like a lost cause at this point.I can't imagine why the ever released it without proper testing.

 

I do keep up with the news through the Hub.
