okay so for quite some time I needed a good vst that has good orchestral library for free and thats why I downloaded the kontakt player 8. I followed all the steps suggested by the site, like install native access first then download the Kontakt 8 player… but when I installed the plugin… it just downloaded the standalone version without any vst version.. refer to the pictures below -
the installation path dialog box doesn't mention the vst location and I even scanned the whole system but couldn't find it. refer to pictures below again -
if anyone knows what to do… help me a bit if you don't mind? would appreciate alott!!
That is not the directory I asked for.
We need to see:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3

No. Those locations in the NI app - are quickly fading away and are there strictly for compatibility reasons.
The 32bit path has been retired for years - but it's still available if that's your thing.
The 64Bit path houses VST2 format plugins - which are all on their way out as well.
VST3 is the current standard and it's path is set by the system and all vendors are required to use it automatically.
All modern NI apps - like Kontakt - no longer ship any VST2 versions - so all you will ever get is a VST3
Ohhhh f*ckkkkkk thanks mann!!! I got itt 💀 sorry man...
No need to curse - but I assume you see that Kontakt 8 is a VST3 and is present?
But wait... Those file location that is shown in the NI app, shouldnt it be installed there??
Yeahh yeahhh
Thanks, bud... You really helped me alot!!
Got it... Thanks!!
