So.. I finally upgraded to K8 and now all my old project using K6-7 have stopped working. They no longer setup the original instruments with the instrument setting.. Is it nessasary to go through every track and reset the instrument in K8..??

    Did you uninstall K6 or K7? "Upgrading" to K8 should have no effect on the ability for the older versions to load these older instance normally. All three versions can co-exist - side by side.

    And you did not specific which DAW you are using. Some (Cubase, Logic, Studio One) have auto-migration capabilities where an instance of K8 - will in fact load up an older instance of K6 or K7 if found in an older project.

    Others do not. And you would need to manually reset all of them.

    Did you update a lot of the instrument libraries to the latest versions at the same time you updated to K8? If you did then it's likely that some of those instruments will no longer load into Kontakt 6/7. Is it every instrument that fails to load or just a selection of them?
