Session Guitarists cannot find Library Content in Kontakt 7

mitto

I have been having the following problems with Kontakt 7 for about 3 weeks. When opening projects in Cubase 13 Pro, I get an error message saying that one or more instances of Kontakt could not be opened properly because the corresponding library content could not be found.
I tried to show the path using "Browse for Files / Browse for Folder. Unfortunately, without success, although the corresponding data is still in the same location. The "Ignore this Time" option causes Cubase to freeze. So far, it is only certain NI session instruments such as "Electric Sunburst Deluxe", "Picked Nylon", "Electric Mint", "Prime Bass" that no longer open. Strangely enough, "NI Session Electric Vintage" is not affected and starts normally. However, if I create a new instance of Kontakt in the same project, I can open all session instruments normally.
I have reinstalled all affected instruments in NI Access, without success. I have deleted the file
NativeAccess.xml in the "Service Center" folder and started Native Access 2 after restarting the computer. Without success. I replaced the "NativeAccess.xml" file with the file provided by "Jeremy_NI". After that I was able to start all projects again without any error messages. However, a newly purchased "Acoustic Sunburst Deluxe" is no longer displayed.
The next time I restart "Native Access 2", Jeremy's "NativeAccess.xml" is automatically overwritten and all the instruments mentioned can no longer find their content. You might think that I start the project with Jeremy's "NativeAccess.xml", create a preset for the instrument, open the project under the regular "NativeAccess.xml", create a new Kontakt instance, open the corresponding instrument and import the preset I created. Unfortunately, the preset I created cannot be seen here. Now I'm giving up in frustration.
As I'm obviously not the only one with a similar problem, I would be grateful for any help. Greetings Michael

Sympathies mate, I'm having similar issues with NI software. All I can tell you is don't give up, the solution is most likely going to be resolved by your own persistence in trying new things. I have struggled for months on my own to resolve issues within the basic NI software framework, only to fix the problem in a manner that eludes common sense. Good luck.
