There were two maps created with almost identical names. I deleted one and started Komplete Kontrol. Afterwards everything went good.

Try the following:

Update Cubase to the latest version
Update hardware connection service to the latest version (2.0.5)
Start Komplete Kontrol standalone one time and check that you have keyboard connectivity (this step is important)
Close Komplete Kontrol
Start Cubase

No. No change….

Cubase 14.0.32 - Built on Jun 19 2025

Komplete Kontrol 3.5.0

So you have full connectivity with KK standalone (i.e. the browser and plugin button both light up) but when you start Cubase the DAW button doesn't light up?

As mentioned in the other thread I linked, Antivirus software or some other issue may be causing problems so you may need to manually copy the file across then. Please read that thread carefully and report what you find to help others
