    Wow ,

    After (4) days of posting messages around and participate in many forums i just fix the problem by my self , and i would share it now here ! in case someone else will face same problem so i may be the reason of fixing it ^_^
    I am glad to share my experience fixing the problem Kontakt 5 ( No library found ) problem .
    the solution is very very very simple .
    4 Lines is enough to explain how to fix the problem :

    - Uninstall any Kontakt from your PC.
    - Install Kontakt 5 ( version 5.0.3 )
    - Load all libraries in that version ( some libraries will ask for update )
    - Install Kontakt 5 ( version 5.1.0 ) and all libraries will work.
    - Enjoy !

    By any chance can you tell me how to install Massive the right way. I had it installed perfect until I set my laptop back to factory settings & started re-installing all my programs. Now when I install Massive v1.3.0 with update v1.3.1 when i try to stat the program it says Couldn't create new Sound database. I have never had this happen before & I have installed the program many times before. I am trying to install The Standalone, VSTi x86, VSTi x64 & RTAS. Please help if you can. Thanks in advance.

    OMG. :wow: Really? I thought you tried that already as that solution was posted on AudioZ and you stated that you read all the proposed solutions on the aforementioned site. That's the first thing you should have tried. Could have saved yourself the 4 days. Do it right or do it twice as the saying goes.

    A simple two second look at the Kontakt 5.1.0 thread on AudioZ:
    Guy's got people on four different sites going through registry entries, posting up screenshots and typing up walkthroughs (without so much as a thanks) because he can't take two seconds to read a simple post. Sometimes I really don't understand people. *no*

    Indeed, "run as administrator" solves the problem. Thanks.

    hi guys. I have a problem. I'm on kontakt 5.5.0.409: I'm trying to add Scarbee Rickenbacker Bass (do not kow if it needs a setup installation, just like every library of Native Instruments, but I DONT HAVE this setup.exe) and Evolution Banshee (Orange Tree Samples). In standalone with administrator rights I can add these libs, but then I restart Kontakt and PUFF gone. all the ohter libs no prob. what's the solution?

    Normally is something to do with XML file or reg entry or similar.

    First thing to try go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Native Instruments\Service Center then check XML for Scarbee Rickenbacker.

    Keep a copy if u need for backup tho u not need to.

    Then delete the xml from service centre.

    Next step, reboot, load up Kontakt as admin then re-add library which should generate new xml in the process.

    Then see if it disappears, outside that check reg entry or could be misconfigured file but try that first.

    Good luck !

    yeah, there's no XML file for Rickenbacker and Banshee. seems that Kontakt became unable to create XML files. I'm running it with admin right.

    what if I create two XML files for Rick and Banshee? should it works?

    Ah I see!

    U could try making an xml for example what does your xml u made for Rickenbacker look like?

    U can also use the infamous library tool to create such and also a reg entry but make sure u familiar with it and careful.

    As for you reg entry run regedit, press windows key + R, navigate to the registry key say

    Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Native Instruments\Scarbee Rickenbacker Bass and see what info there.

    Of course u may not have a reg key there for that but if u added it thru library tab u should have.

    ContentDir should reflect the drive the library on eg

    C:\Komplete 10 Ultimate\Scarbee Rickenbacker Bass Library\ or wherever it may be change like C to Y for External whatever it labelled.

    Manually edit info to reflect if u happy to do so :yes:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>

    here is the reg entry:

    Try xml like

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    -<ProductHints>
    <Product version="1">

    so that the

    <HU>
    <JDX> numbers etc

    matches your reg key, then put it in service centre folder etc and re-add

    Don't know a lot about xml but worth a try. Some others may know. Outside that library tool should add it so would like do a clean install & delete reg files etc might work tho :dunno:

    From my understanding of Windows 10, it will attempt to keep all software up to date. This will break most pirated software. Unsure as to the source but seems plausible.
