FL crashes/closes when using kontakt

So randomly after some time when using kontakt FL will just close with no error message. I had the task manager up and my memory was at under 30% and my cpu was at 6% when it closed. I was only using 1 instance of a harp. I`ve had this problem since i started using this new laptop. i`ve tried all fixes i could find to no help.

In my event viewer these are the the two errors i get (constantly).

I have updated my external ssd driver. it is connected. it worked on my desktop with no issues. tried reinstalling both FL and kontakt.

im just so lost and don`t know what to do. And i`m not able to create anything if it stays like this... 😔


Any ideas? appreciate the help, thank you.

    Any steps to reproduce the issue, or is it totally random ? When you open Kontakt in standalone, do you experience any crashes or malfunctions ? If you use the VST2 version of Kontakt in FL Studio, do you also get crashes ?

    When i open it in standalone i have not had any issues, but i have not put down any patterns ofc. I will try kontakt in vst 2 now to see. But my mange plugins page gives me only vst3?

    As you can see i have no plugins in the vst.2 format

    Ah, the VST2 files are not installed here by default, please check this article: Plug-in Administration in FL Studio 20 (Windows)

    Then please try with Kontakt VST2 as a temporary workaround, it's still not normal it crashes with VST3.

    But do you know where the default vst.2 location is so i can try it out?

    Everything is in the article ;) By default the NI VST files are installed here: C:\Program Files\Native Instruments\VSTPlugins 64 bit

    I now tried with kontakt being the vst version not vst3, and the crashing still persist....

    You have two threads with the same question. Please don't do that. I have removed your other thread.

    @Woodback Did you recently update Kontakt using Native Access 2 by any chance?

    I did it as a possible fix. But it did not work before the updated either
