Kontakt opens/glitches as a small window briefly before opening normally in Logic

I started getting this behavior after I reset the Application location in Native Access (which was showing me an error, so I followed steps to fix it).

It flashes this window briefly almost as a stutter, glitch effect then opens the main window. Kontakt still runs fine once it's open, but it's a bit jarring and I'm hoping to fix this. I tried reinstalling Kontakt but no luck.

The behavior doesn't happen when I run Logic with Rosetta, however I prefer not to run it with Rosetta.

I'm using a Mac Studio Ultra, Logic 10.7.5, Ventura, Kontakt 7.0

    This issue should be fixed with the latest version of Kontakt (7.1.3).

    I think I got this problem too. I am on Windows 10. When I open and closes it its a tiny lag behind as you describe. Tried it on Ableton too and still the same problem. The picture shows when I close the plugin, it blinks this for less than a second

    Interesting. I'm wondering if I uninstall and reinstall Kontakt if that would help.. but worried that would somehow add new problems since I have a bunch of libraries already installed. Have you tried that?

    Are you on Ventura? I realized this is happening with any non-stock instrument. Happens with Spitfire and Synplant too. Is it only Native Inst for you?

    Edit Nvm you said you're on Windows. hmm

    I've had this happen for quite some time in Logic. It's only for a few seconds while it finishes loading. I don't think anything of it, as once the load is finished all is good. I just thought it was part of interface initialising.

    It just seems like the code is running in a scripting window before the graphics are applied.

    I think it's more obvious depending on what are plugins are being loaded in the project to, which may slow the refresh update before it finishes.

    I seem to remember it being more pronounced after a major Logic Pro update.

    Still got this issue and I've just installed 7.1.8.

    Sometimes the large 'proper' window refuses to open at all. I have to close the smaller window that appears and open it several times to get the large window.

    And you're correct: this doesn't happen in Rosetta. Very irritating.
