VST and DLL files missing

Hello, I recently purchased the Akai MPK mini play and they gave me some plug-ins for Native Instruments as a gift. I managed to connect and use them through Komplete Kontrol, but I can't find the VST files or the DLL files to use them in both LMMS and MPC beats. Is it normal that these files don't appear?

The VST3 files should be in the standard VST3 folder which is C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3

Have you enabled VST3 support in MPC Beats? There's often a tickbox for that somewhere in the configuration. You might be able to run some of the other NI plugins as long as they still support VST2 and you add the path C:\Program Files\Native Instruments\VSTPlugins 64 bit to the paths that Beats scans.

LMMS doesn't support VST3 as far as I'm aware so you can't run Komplete Kontrol in it. Same comment about the VST2 path also applies to LMMS, so be sure to check that.
