    You shouldn't need to upgrade just for crashes. First step would be this: Kontakt Crashes

    Can you give more details? Are you using K6 standalone or in a DAW? If it's in a DAW which one, and what version? Does it always happen, or occasionally? What are you doing when it crashes?

    Is it the full version of Kontakt or the Player version?

    Are you using K6 standalone or in a DAW? Standalone crashes and so does in Ableton 12

    If it's in a DAW which one, and what version? Ableton Live 12

    Does it always happen, or occasionally? Happens every time, and I did try to reinstall

    What are you doing when it crashes? Tried to reinstall twice

    Still not enough information to go on.

    Mac or Windows? Which version?

    How did you install Kontakt 6.8?

    What version of Native Access do you have?

    If you're on Mac, it looks like Kontakt 6 might require Rosetta. Do you meet all of the requirements for running Kontakt 6?

    Are you aware that Kontakt 6 came out in 2018, almost 7 years ago? We'll try our best to help, but you might need to consider upgrading Kontakt.

    You're right. Dropped $99 for the upgrade to 8 and everything is perfect. Thanks for guiding my wallet
