    I clicked Studio one | options | VST Plugins clicked Add, went to my Kontakt Portable folder | Kontakt | x64 | VST3 selected the folder, applied. And restarted Studio one....I don't see kontakt anywhere in Studio one.
    Am I doing this wrong? Is that how you get kontakt portable to work with studio one? Also, How do you know if Kontakt is working properly in studio one? How can you find it?

    I've read through all the Kontakt cracked vs legit threads and Kontakt windows threads, but I can't seem to find anything on getting Kontakt 6 or higher portable working with a DAW.

    In the file attachment you will find the installation instructions for the Kontakt PORTABLE.

    Go to preferences > locations > plugins/vsts and there add a new folder with the location of your kontakt6 folder.

    Windows

    1. Go to Studio One > Options > Locations > VST Plug-Ins tab , and make sure the following paths are listed (if not, add them):

    - C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3
    - C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\VST3
    - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Native Instruments
    - C:\Program Files\Vstplugins

    2. Check Scan at startup.
    3. Click on Reset Blacklist and when prompted click Yes.
    4. Click OK and restart Studio One.

    My Kontakt portable directory looks like this:
    F:\Kontakt portable v6.2.2\Kontakt\x64\VST3\

    Do I add the Kontakt portable v6.2.2 folder to Studio One ? Or do I add the Kontakt folder? Or, do i add the VST3 folder?
    thanks for all the help!

    click on install (from the portable extract) to create the shortcuts in the vst folders
    also try to use 6.7.0 to take all the last libraries.

    in studio one and cubase
    vst3 will hide vst2
    portable will hide the regular version

    ableton, reapper, sequoia show all.

    what you call the same error is a bad folder structure. you only moved the dll. it also use the pre folder structure as the extracted install.

    extract anywhere, but use install exe to make the VST link. run as admin at the first launch on win 11.
