Hi! thanks so much! I was actually taking a look at that. I will send here the links I used to fix it, in case someone else needs it! This response was for Kontakt 5 but for me it worked in the 6 as well.

I followed these steps:

Entered in the "Regedit" option and followed the steps of link # 3. It basically deleted the Kontakt Register file, then I reinstalled the program and it worked.

Thanks again.

If you are on windows, uninstall it from system settings/apps and reinstall with native access. What kontakt version do you have on what OS?

Hi @Jjo if you're using Mac, make sure that Kontakt has "Full Disk Access" just in case. How to Enable Full Disk Access on macOS

Hi yes! I am on Windows 10, I first downloaded the version 6.1.1 and it was working fine. Then I uploaded it to the latest 6.7.0 and now it doesn't works, when I try to open the program, it starts but immediately it closes again by itself.

Hey you can also try these steps: KONTAKT Crashes

Usually, deleting the database does the trick.
