You have to remove kontakt (manually, things like ccleaner wont work) from the registry.

Always backup before editing your registry!!!

Try this:

• click start > type regedit
• open regedit.exe
• in regedit go to: Computer > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Native Instruments
• Remove all folders with "Kontakt" in the name

Now you should be able to install Kontakt again!

 

when will you learn how to read instructions?
and in the comment it was already said - this is a file permissions problem. (https://audiosex.pro/threads/proble...takt-6-v6-6-1-portable-win.61665/#post-616356)
just unpack the kontakt portable folder to any other drive, not the system one!

Hi. Tried moving to another drive and all other permission issues mentioned here. Can I get some help @BEAT16 please!

 

Hello @Sunny what version of Kontakt are you using ? Where is the problem ?

 

Hey @BEAT16 Thank you for the reply. It's Kontakt portable 6.7.1

The error is \ UserData \ Settings.cfg can't be updated.

I tried putting it in C: drive and all the other drives I have. The error stays same

I have done regedit to remove all kontakt entries, multiple times. Then re-did the whole thing. Still same error

I am on Windows 10

 

@Sunny Fiddle, I wish you much success.
