in Kontakt

I never opted to install Kontakt 7 and since it installed I get Logic error messages every time I open the app that 'com.apple.audio.InfoHelper [2302]' has failed to launch.

I can't believe Native Access doesn't have a built in uninstall option, but please can someone help me? The NI website only seems to explain how to uninstall NA. I'm on Mac OS 12.6


Thank you

    If you don't know how to uninstall it you should still have Kontakt 6 on your computer. If you start that up in Logic everything should be good again.

    In other words it should say Kontakt 7 and Kontakt. in you drop down plugins list.

    @cnnryng Even if you use Komplete Kontrol you need to have a version of Kontakt installed to be able to load your Kontakt libraries and instruments in Komplete Kontrol.

    Is your Mac a M1 mac or Intel Mac ?

    @Jeremy_NI Thank you but my question is only related to uninstalling Kontakt 7

    Update: I managed to remove Kontakt 7 following @Monochrome 's link, but none of my tracks playback and if I open KK I can see an error that Kontakt 7 is missing from the plugin. I never asked KK to switch from Kontakt 6 to 7, this seems to have happened automatically, is there a way to tell it to go back to 6 please?
