You have more lucky because for me this advertising not disappears and not start to play.

Please se post your system gpu cpu. Etc maybe find a solution.

Did you install the program to somewhere other than the system drive? The program may be looking for it there if you did; of course it would be on the drive where you installed it and not on the system drive. .

Thanks for your reply SteveK. Yes, it's a newly purchased Intel Nuc with only a SSD inside so yes, the system drive. Somehow it seems not to be marking the fact that it has activated this component because it plays the movie just fine afetr that in glorious 4k and HDR. I only have Windows and Powerdvd 17 loaded on this Nuc so no intereference from any other software.

I have the same problem but for me never starti instal powerdvd in local C is a SSD. another disc I leave for games and folders blu Ray.

Check my post. Named problems wit hdr this not leave paste here.
