Native Access 3.19 won't install update

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Native Access 3.19 won't install update. I have went through a lot to get the previous version to work but now that there is an update it is back to saying "Please grant permission to Native Access to install dependencies. Please restart Native Access and try again." I have downloaded NTK daemon 1.24.1 and it still has the same error. I have went through support and was told to reinstall my Microsoft C++ applications and that wasn't even the issues because I already had the updated versions. I went into command prompt and scanned and repaired my entire system. What can I do to not have to constantly reinstall this app over and over again? Is their a different version of NTK daemon that will work with this update and why isn't Native Access recognizing the daemon?

I have downloaded NTK daemon 1.24.1

You appear from previous experience to know how to work around this problem , so your present problem most likely is that N.I. updated the NTKDaemon yet again (newest is 1.25.0) but didn't update the download of the NTKDaemon to fit the newest Native Access.

The NTKDaemon installer can be extracted from the latest version of Native Access for your OS download. But I am attaching it to my post here.

You most likely know better than I how to solve the problem on your PC but my guess is that you need to uninstall both N.A. and the NTKDaemon and then run the NI reg tool and remove anything Native Access and NTKDaemon

Then restart computer , download newest version of Native Access for your OS , then reinstall Native Access as an Administrator and the NTKDaemon as an Administrator.

It's just happening because your system is not set up correctly, to allow the dependencies to install.

When I update, the dependencies just get installed without me having to do anything.

Are you logged in to Windows with admin permissions? When you run the install programs, are you doing so as admin? Do you have anti-virus software running?

It should not be necessary to install NTKDaemon separately under normal circumstances. If everything is as it should be, NTKDaemon will be installed as part of the overall Native Access installation procedure.

Absolutely correct , but some people still have this kind of problems and if there is one specific reason for peoples problems (e.g. a specific type of user account problem or a specific user access issue) then N.I. support or whoever knows has not informed us what is the general problem. Anyway , then root cause could be a type of Windows problem that most people would not be interested in having to bother to fix. I read this very day that e.g. a Mac user had found a specific user access problem to parts of the installation where access problem should generally not be expected to be found and I wouldn't be surprised at all if the same would be the case for some Windows users.

Anyway , then let us hope that the installation of the newest NTKDaemon will help fix the particular problem here.

All the problems started with the latest update of Native Access, because if you paid attention, it also sees installed VSTs from other manufacturers such as Arturia, Alliance Plugin, which I have a license for just in case, but in Native Access it is like a demo. This is probably why the problems are happening...

Well, it seems like everything is fixed, at least for me everything works

Well, everything works as it should, an update came out, I just updated it and it no longer shows vst from other manufacturers and I can easily log into my account, it was not a problem with your computer but with Native Access, which was finally fixed

Yes, someone from NI posted recently that it was an error, they knew about it and an update would be released. That's not related to the above problem with NTKDaemon.

I have no idea what the problem was but after reinstalling it multiple time it finally works. I have to download the programs separate from native access and then go on native access in order to activate each app. Also, my windows said my account was a admin account but after digging deeper I realized it was a standard account so that could be why it was giving me a hard time. Still after switching to the admin account I had to download the daemon as well and it was still sometimes give the same dependencies error. This was all very tedious but thanks for all of your help.

Great that you managed to get it to work and that you also found out about your account type and thank you for providing feedback. 🙂

If you have or have had Windows user account access issues then they could still give Windows access problem , so you need to be sure that you have had all permission issues straightened out. When switching users then it is important that you make sure that the new user gets ownership to avoid any access issues. You usually have to do that even if you attempt to give the new user the and computer same name as the old.
