Kontakt 5.exe error

If it's not working in Win 10 EITHER, that's bad. BTW of course all of us did the routine NI advises. Which absolutely does not work for me. Did all the Win 7 updates, the uninstall, the re-install, etc... Did it several times (definition of insanity). No luck.

What started the nightmare for me was doing a fresh install of Win 7. Before that everything was hunky dory.

 

Wouldn't be peachy if NI could bring themselves to, maybe, tell us WHERE in the installed Kontakt 5 directory structure the .dll file is supposed to be. Worse comes to worse, we could just go to the appropriate directory(ies) and paste a copy of the ms file.

 

DLL is not installed in Kontakt 5's folder at all. It is supposed to be in your VST plugins folder.

 

I went through the entire uninstall process and did a reinstall. I still get the same error. It says the disk is missing.

 

Time to open RegEdit and delete any Kontakt 5 related registry keys.

 

I did actually delete all the registry keys as well. I referenced a thread from a few years ago when I had a similar issue. Even after doing that, I still get this error.

 

Unfortunately I'm out of ideas for you... in any case, W7 won't work with latest Kontakt versions.

 

I had the exact same issue, I just reinstalled and it got fixed

 

Ok so now mine works again on Win 10. I am thinking maybe the OS was updating and I wasn't aware...maybe?
Now the only thing I can't get to work is my Roland TD-3 with Kontakt 5 in Pro Tools 11. That's for another forum though......update from this morning, 2-6...the same error is back.
