GR 5 always scans components and presets on load

godchilla

I already deinstalled and reinstalled GR5 but with no avail. Before deinstalling I manually deleted the GR folder in users/AppData/NI.

I think the problem is GR doesn't know where its Presets are (nor do I).

GR5 file locations here are:

Users/.../AppData/Local/Native Instruments/Guitar Rig 5

-Database

--gr5db

--gr5dbLock

--User

-Temp (empty)

Component Favorites.xml

Controller Assignments.shm

UserData.json

Users/.../Documents/Native Instruments/Guitar Rig 5

Component Presets (empty)

Crashlogs (empty)

Presets

-Backup (empty)

-GR3Import (empty)

Sounds

-(only one preset I saved)

Program Files/Native Instruments/Guitar Rig 5

-Documentation

Guitar Rig 5.exe

I have a folder on a different hd which was apperently used for Maschine which is called Guitar Rig Pro Library for Maschine X. Here, in a subfolder Modules, are all the .mfxp presets which show up in GR5 after it has completed its scan. Very confusing.

Hopefully someone can help me out. I recently dug out Guiter Rig 5 after disregarding it for a long time, and saw it's actually quite good!

First, have you tried opening GR5 using "Run as Administrator" ? if not, give it a try... also, the .Mfxp presets you see are Maschine NKS presets and are not used specifically "In" GR5 but rather are Maschine specific.
