has something changed on the activation process on the most recent versions of Kontakt and Battery?

Hello,

if I update Kontakt and Battery to the most recent versions via Native Access, both applications present me a dialog with the choices to open the applications in demo mode, activate them using Native Access or to buy the program.

When I open the "about" window after I choose the demo mode, a lot of question marks appear as serial numbers instead of the real serial number. When I open Native Access through the app, the applications appear as installed.

Re-installing the applications does not solve the problem, but in the case of Kontakt it appears as registered again if I downgrade it to 7.10.6 or earlier. Not tried with Battery yet.

    The topic is a little bit older but I found out what the problem on my installation was after a bit of debugging:

    Native Access seems to call some powershell scripts during the installation and I found out that the execution always failed due to crashes when calling the powershell executable.

    After re-installing the powershell from gitub:

    Everything works fine again.
