How to Turn Off Product Excellence Program?

 1. What is NX ‘Product Excellence Program’?

This Program was introduced in NX 11.0.1. Basically, this program collects data that how NX is being used right from installation to what commands, features and how they will be used. The user will have a choice whether to participate in or not. It is enabled by default. When NX is (NX 11.0.1 and higher version) installed first time on any machine, then a message dialog is displayed at the NX startup to the user about this program and participation. Thereafter message will not be displayed on same machine again.
