"Please grant permission to Native Access to install dependencies. Please restart Native Access and try again."
I have followed every step imaginable to sort this out to no avail.
All of my user accounts have full permission to install dependencies. Firewall and antivirus stuff turned off. Full uninstall and NI Uninstall reg files etc. tried gpedit.msc, services.msc. Deleted every possible mention of NTKDaemon or Native Instruments on the computer. Attempted many times to reinstall Native Access and NTKDaemon (always extracted and always running the .exe as an administrator), but it always says it needs permission.
I haven't tried Native Access since I experienced this issue for an entire month back in August of 2025. I wanted to add a new library and figured it was still working, but when I tried accessing it again, it is giving me the dependencies issue again.
I have gone through the extra steps again of unplugging the second monitor, making sure the resolution scaling wasn't too high, updated GPU drivers, repaired the Miscrosoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x86), and nothing seems to be working. I have also uninstalled and removed all of my sample libraries associated with native instruments (except Kontakt 8 as I am scared of losing it while it still works), and deleted all of my native instruments files and folders, deleted reg files for native access and anything native instruments related and am still receiving the same message. All permissions have been granted on all accounts, and it still is saying it needs permission to install dependencies from fresh installs of both NTKDaemon from the most recent download link provided and a brand new install of Native Access, every time. I attempted to set up a new user admin user account and am still receiving the same message.
Anyone else having this problem? I am at a total loss, and many of my sample libraries and Kontakt have been rendered useless by this recurring issue.
