How to make kontakt organize libraries properly ?
I one of the many disappointed user of kontakt, who had to actually pay 300$ in order to use non native instrument (spitfire audio vst) and who ends up spending more time setting up the player than actually doing music.

Native Access suddenly not recognizing licenses, crashing host applications
As of today, Native Access 3.24.0 seems to have stopped recognizing my Kontakt 7 registration.

I'm assuming this is related to a…
