Kontakt 8 Factory Library missing Orchestral Keyboards and Percussion

Question

I am missing Orchestral Instruments and Percussion in Kontakt sub Bank above.

I really like the Harpsichord (among others) preset and although I can open them by going to the containing folder I cannot save them as favourites from there (after I open the file) I believe.  I have tried Batch resave etc but no solutions so far!🤔

Well - this:

appears to be Factory Library 1 - but I am not familar with any references to VSL or anything else in a default install of Factory 1.

AND - it appear your are running Kontakt 8 - so ideally you should really be using FL2 - here is what my install of Factory Library 2 looks like:

Everything is where it should be - placed automatically by Native Access.

So I am still confused by your screencaps - which is a hodgepodge of what looks like FL1  and then this:

So I really do not know what you are working with or trying to do here.

Not even sure if Factory Library 1 is fully compatible with Kontakt 8 either.

I have never used it with Kontakt 8 - it's been Factory Library 2 since day 1.

To Clarify I don't want to move anything I just want all 7 sub banks of the  Orchestral Library (which is complete in my library) to show when I open Kontakt. Per my Screenshots

* Libraty is complete in file explorer (all 7)
* Incomplete in Kontakt (only 4 of 7)

I reinstalled Kontakt but it still cannot find the missing sub folders.

Any guidance would really help a lot!!

Concur with @Jeremy_NI

It is not possible to “alter” the install of this library (via Native Access) to force it to install three or four instrument categories “here” and two others over “there”.

Looks to me like you moved things manually which is never recommended.
