    I recently developed a tool for Windows that can remove one or all libraries installed for Bodule's version of Kontakt 8. It'll completely remove them from the system, including the registry and cache locations.

    Repository: https://github.com/jakerieger/K8-LRT
    Latest Version: https://github.com/jakerieger/K8-LRT/releases/latest

    Hopefully some of you guys find this useful. It's also open source so any contributions are welcome (please open an issue first, though)

    I appreciate it, I've been doing it manually for a long time and never really thought about coding something to take care of the grunt work.

    If you can, open an issue on the GitHub repository with your system information (OS, specs) and the attached K8-LRT.log file (same location as the .exe). Only Windows 7 through 11 are supported so if you're running one of those Windows versions, it's likely a bug.
