Re Installing NI question
I have all my NI libraries on an external hard drive but I needed to do a complete re install of Windows. My question is is there a tutorial on how to re install NI on my pc without getting duplicates of my libraries or other drama. Sounds like a stupid question but would appreciate some newbie guidance!1. Thanks for any help👍

Once you've reinstalled your OS install Native Access. At the bottom left you'll see a "maintenance" link. Click that, then "Locate Content". That'll let you tell NA where all your content is, ie on the external drive. That works for libraries. Not sure if it does for things like expansions, but even loading the libraries saves you a LOT of download time. You'll also need to set the content location in Preferences to make sure any new content is installed on your external drive.

Thank you so much mate. Really helped me out. I probably would have missed the maintenance tab. Again thanks 👍👍
