I have attempted to install library 2 for kontakt . I already have the kontakt library from kontakt 6 on the same external ssd I’ve set the path to. There is plenty of room. I have my defaul path for kontakt pointed at the proper external ssd in preferences. Something downloaded but what is it ?

I was left with a library -receipt file - with .plist and .bom . Can anyone elaborate or help me ?

I can’t seem to get in touch with NI? I have no idea what’s that .plist /.bom is. I have no idea where my library is or if it is installed. Can I delete this weird .plist .bom receipt file?

I also can not install hydra . It fails every time.

    Hi @Multimeterman I saw you received help from our support team already. Note to others who might have the same question about this Library -> Receipts folder: Please don't delete the folder. Files in that folder contain the location of the library which Kontakt requires in order to run and display the library content.

    Is this folder really necessary? How to act with that receipts folder after moving the library to another SSD?
