Relocate all libraries in one click, similar to install all, but relocate.

WestonGuidero · March 2024

I just want to relocate all of my libraries in one click. I have 258 kontakt libraries and it takes forever to relocate each one individually. Is there any way around this? Registry edits or anything? I am on windows 11 on PC with multiple internal hard drives.

You should be able to click "Relocate All" which appears when you have at least one library that needs relocating -

That function is only for relocating libraries that are already installed, it won't appear if you need to install libraries for the first time.

I have them all installed already. but not getting the relocate all button because its a fresh install of native access on a new system, but with an old hard drive for the sample libraries.

Ah, ok in that case you can't do relocate all, you have to do it one by one sorry. Being able to do a "Locate all" has been requested numerous times so fingers crossed it'll appear at some point in the future.

Thanks, yeah rather unfortunate. Just spent about an hour and a half doing it one by one. Hopefully they will update NI access soon.

Quote Hayo_NI on October 2023 :

installers are going away in most cases and switching to slim content tech that removes the need for installers. This will also allow you to update products by updating only the files affected. Ergo, we're not investing much more time on enhancing the experience with our existing installers right now, unfortunately.

We're rolling slim content out for expansions. This could display an incorrect need to reinstall the entire product, though we're looking into what else might be causing this visual glitch.
