    Hi guys!
    So I installed a legit Kontakt 55.2 and followed @Introninja 's guide in order to be able to use Cracked libraies after downloading a cracked Kontakt 55.2 update by "Tracer".
    However libaries dosen't dissapear anymore after closing Kontakt and the cracked DLL runs stable in FL12 64bit, but the Activate buttons are still showing up on the Cracked libraries and they're in DEMO mode. Does anyone have a solution?
    PS when I press the NI logo at the top right corner it says FULL so I'm not running the Player.
    Cheers!

    I Use Kontakt 5.5.2 and have 890 libraries on my tag. I have the same problem every time I must format C: for any problem. Four libraries, yes, I know, only four libraries, make the same thing. All the others work properly. These are Virtual Ensemble Trilogy, Cinesamples VOXOS, Vir2 Apollo Cinematic and NI Scarbee A-200. I add these four libraries to the tag and they appear normally. I close Kontakt, and when I open Kontakt again, the libraries have disappeared. When Kontakt register them, it creates the s3.temp file. I add libraries again from tab list and they appear again. I close Kontakt, reopen and have disappeared again. So till my death. Any idea about it? All four libraries come from the audioz site and have nicnt file or nkx.

    Two things to try -

    1.) Remove library then make sure you run Kontakt as Standalone & as administrator. Then add then re-add the library. That can sometimes work

    if that doesn't work then this might

    2.) a.) Take the sc3.temp file that is produced on the desktop
    b.) Right click on the sc3.temp file and rename it to the name of the library i.e Scarbee A-200.xml or voxos.xml or whatever the library nicnt in your folder is named
    c.) Copy & paste or move the renamed XML and place in the service centre or overwrite the one that is there ie

    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Native Instruments\Service Center

    Should work hopefully :bow:

    Okay the SC3 is produced by the service centre hence SC! Normally u just delete but in this case something is misconfigured i.e library name etc Open the SC3.tmp with notepad/notepad ++ and tell me what it says :yes: My guess is that the NICNT is corrupted or has been manufactured and the library names are not correct or a conflict. Something along those lines

I can't be bothered downloading the libraries and don't tun unlocked at the moment but the sc3.tmp and libray nicnt will help :wink:

    right download this IS NOT LINKING WAREZ just a simple XML.

    http://www75.zippyshare.com/v/Mflea0cA/file.html

    1.) open it go to

    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Native Instruments\Service Center

    Take out & back up old XML i.e keep it.

    Drop this in the service centre.

    Run Kontakt as Standalone As administrator and see what happens.

    If same problem remove library manually in libray tab, Re-ADD in administrator and then replace XML with this.

    I need a copy of the NICNT really. This may work but might not but worth a try

    That NICNT seems ok doesn't disappear on me in 5.5.2 :dunno:

    try this run regedit

    go to

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Native Instruments\Apollo Cinematic Guitars

    DELETE the whole key doesnt matter as new one generated then run Kontakt as admin in standalone and see what happens

    Am not sure mate tbh. First off check there no conflicts with the 597? as in the ID. Don't think it's that . This is a common problem some people seem to solve it using some of the methods I mentioned and others don't. The SC3temp as far as I know is a hidden temporary file that is created when you add the library thru the library tab via the service centre.

    Some people solve it by turning the SC3.temp to XML and saving and putting back into service centre. However that not worked. This NICNT also well encryped etc.

    Don't think the NICNT is corrupted as it stayed fine in mine but mine was legit 5.5.2 . What version of kontakt are u using. Have a suspicion it maybe something to do with a service centre issue or a corrupted file/ installation or reg key location etc. Also some solve by deleting the reg key i mentioned which can become corrupted. I really am not sure but i will look into it over the next day or two and see what I can find.

    What version of kontakt are u using and how did u update i.e did u use a reg key tool or installation from the beginning etc and what OS u running.

    Is an question that I would like to solve as it is a common issue. It could possibly be something to do with the unlocking process of Kontakt itself but I am just throwing out wild shots here. I will look at the libraries u mentioned and see what I can do but it may take me a day or two as fairly busy atm. Someone else may have a good idea and help out because ut is a pretty well known issue but is most likely solvable :mates:

    Thanks for all the help you give me Lean.
    I´m under Windows 7 Ultimate x64.
    Kontakt version is 5.5.2 updated with Tracer version after installing Komplete 9 Ultimate.
    I have over 650 libraries registered by NICNT file and nkx and other 250 or more registered via Kontakt Library Manager 3. But as you know, the manual register has a limit. That´s the reason because I´ve been looking in this section at least for the wallpapers. Also found some of the NICNT included in this section didn´t work (No library found). Nevermind, I register with KLM 3 and registry key (k2lib0xxx) and that´s all.
    I don´t know if you need any other information.
    Take your time. It´s only that these four libraries are important and I don´t understand why if others work perfect these four not. One last. I downloaded the four libraries from different sites, and all four failed. Same copy? Some didn´t appear on tab and others appear the first time but disappear the second time.

    mmm could be a lot of things Library managers arent the best unless u have to. Another option to try is a side by side ie. use R2R to latest edition and Tracers 5.5.2 .dll and .exe for libraries that need it. I did it not to long back for a while and it worked no problems. Will be a pain but most probably would work. Always advise against using NICNT that homeade unless u need one or have a definite system and also the library manager unless u need it. Could be a few things . A lot of the errors u mention are common ones Like i said give me a little time & will see what I can sort out. Is it just the wallpaper that dissapears or does the whole library go missing. i.e even though the pictutre gone can u load a patch thru quickload i.e is it still registered?
