    It would be good to have option to disable installation of 32bit version of plugins in Native Access. On 64bit systems they are not much needed and just use space.

    I fully agree. Native Access is a good way to get started with the NI products (and it sure beats having to backup all the installers yourself because.. once you used the link it'd be gone) but it certainly has its flaws.

    Another aspect is that it will easily download an ISO image again even though it's already available. That's really not very professional :)

    That's fine. It should be an option as most other companies installers have, some check boxes: install 32 or 64 or both. So user can choose.

    I also got a nice mail from melda production about that "catalina issue" it is a manual to switch from osx to windows and why and so on
    Funny for a windows user like me.

    I would also love this feature! The 32-bit plugins just clutter my DAW (Reaper) and drive unnecessarily.
