I dont know wth happened but i re-installed komplete kontrol in native access, went to task manager, eneded some microsoft edge browsers and voila everythings working again. NI you guys have some weird ass issues with your software. I have had to uninstall realtek drivers before to get my stuff working, as well as other steps.

Another thing i noticed is in hardware folder in windows c/prog files/common files/NI/hardware NIhostintegrationagent folder is missing but NIhardwareservice is still there. My maschine and s61 controller wont connect to software so i assume the hostintegrstionagent needs to be running in the background. Is there a way to re-install this ?

I'm having the same problem. Problems with Native Access updates to Komplete Kontrol.

Radio silence from NI on this issue.

Native instruments has some of the worst non existent customer service i think ive ever seen from a company before. Unless its a question in regards to purchasing something they have never answered any of my questions that i remember. I have komplete 14 ultimate but i dont think ill purchase anything from them again. Im the type that will refuse to purchase products from a company that doesn’t have customer service. Good luck dude. My advice is try a fresh re-install. It has fixed my issues in the past. Other than that i have spent countless hours trying to get things working and the only thing that seems to do the trick is re-installing. Good luck to you and i suggest you look at other options for music software. Besides playbox the rest of native instruments stuff coming out has been ****** and nothing new or spectacular. The new keyboards dont even have maschine control lol? Wth is the point of making gear that is supposed to be komplete no pun intended and cant fully integrate with software? Sorry ranting here. Seeing your post reminded me of the trouble i went through when i went through and was posting these issues. Take care
