I used Kontakt 7 until about a month ago, since last week Kontakt does not start anymore: the process is started - it appears in Task Manager for a couple of seconds - and then dies without any window/GUI appearing and with no error in Windows events application.
What I already did without success:
- rebooted PC
- uninstalled Kontakt e reinstalled it, also removing related folders under AppData\Local\....
- uninstalled all versions of Redistributable C++ and installed latest version (through support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads-2647da03-1eea-4433-9aff-95f26a218cc0)
Additional notes:
- the PC did not change any hardware component in the last month;
- Windows 11 is updated;
- Kontakt does not start also in DAW, neither in Komplete Kontrol latest version;
- Guitar Pro 6 does not start as well with the same behavior - the program is launched and after a couple of seconds dies before showing a GUI or throwing some error, no sign of problem is shown.
- Native Access works normally.
I also opened a support ticket last Friday but so far no answer so since I am stuck I am asking help here. What can I do to try to solve the situation?
Thanks a lot
Giuse
