🚨 SOS – Native Instruments Plugins cause hard crash + auto reboot

Whenever I open Kontakt or Komplete plugins, my Mac immediately shuts down and reboots on its own – no freeze, no crash report – just instant kernel panic.

All other plugins and synths from third-party developers run fine.
Everything is fully updated via Native Access.

✅ System specs:

• Mac Studio M2 Ultra, 128 GB RAM
• macOS 15.5 (24F74)
• RME UCX II interface
• Ableton Live Suite 12.2.1

I’ve been using Macs for 20 years in music production – I’ve never seen this kind of behavior.
This is urgent and needs immediate attention.

Thanks so much for any help –
