Ocultar archivos protegidos del sistema operativo = no native access

untick this on your system to see the ras3 files. they are in the system protected files group.

Hi Audiz Brothers,



first of all, thank you for all the replies…

my hidden folder option was already activated and that did not solve the problem.

I delete my Public Documents folder and created a new one after that I could create the folder

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Native Instruments\Native Access\ras3

But now all my legit Ni Plugins are in demo mode. So, I reinstall NI access but unfortunate that did not solved the problem. The weird think is that after new installation NI access did not create the ras3 folder. Bu when I open the Ni access it recognizing my plugins and they are activated…

The only plugins that are working are the plugins that are prepatch from the sister site like Kontakt Maschine and Massive X…

Real strange problem….

I hope someone can help me out here…

 

In my opinion it is not good to use plugins from native instruments and use the cracked plugins. I advise you to decide either native acces (these are purchased) or you delete native acces and only use cracked ones. In my opinion, both lead to conflicts.

 

what for you need "see" this folder? it was on your hdd you was able to go inside this folder with full path.

are you sure?

sorry, it was a real stupid action...

try to reinstall each product in native access.

 

working without any problems.

conflicts? maybe you can post a proof of this?...

 

.... and with Win10 it is even more important to keep reminding yourself to start a program with administrator rights.

If you have made sure you are logged in with the correct email address, please try the following basic troubleshooting that can also get the DEMO warning to disappear.
Go the directories listed below that pertains to your operating system:

For Mac
Mac HD > Library > Application Support > Native Instruments > Service Center

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

Then delete the following .xml files:
Native Access.xml
NAME OF PRODUCT IN DEMO MODE.xml

Should that not help either, please go to the following article and thoroughly go through all the steps to make sure you get the desired result:

www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/native-access-resets-libraries-into-demo-mode.359303/page-2

After helping some of you on that thread, it looks like there is two issues here:

- You have the demo mode on third party instruments. it's possible that you've exceeded the amount of activation allowed by the manufacturer.
- You have the demo mode on our products. The license may not in the account and you are most likely not logged into Native Access with the right email.

 

Hi,

thx again fort he replies….

So tried all like reinstalling through NI Access or delating the xlm file….

Then I tried to install Guitar Rig the Vr version now every NI plug in is in Demo Mode

Can it be that NI Access put the ras3 folder to the different path any ideas where I can edit them…
I think i messed up my whole Sys

one more think is that some of my NI plug ins that I bought also shown in Ni Access in demo mode is there a chance that they loked up some of my products. But only some of them....

 

no, ni don't doing this.

ok, if these products are legit, go to native instruments website and log into your account. then go to page with all your serials and check list of products.

yes, that's right.

I can't understand you, guys... you know a 1% of main information about how ni software and activation working, but again and again trying to change it and after that you installed instruments can't working properly. maybe you will asking other users before any changes?

 

My Products Are Showing As DEMO in Native Access
https://support.native-instruments....Products-Are-Showing-As-DEMO-in-Native-Access

1. Check your NATIVE ID
It may be that you are logged in via Native Access with the incorrect account (Native ID). Ensure that you are logging in with the same email address you initially used to register your NI products.

2. Your activation fails because of corrupted or missing activation tokens
This can be solved by following the steps outlined here:

1. Make sure Native Access is closed.
2. Navigate to the following directory:
   C: > Users > Public > Public Documents
   Important note: Do NOT navigate to "C: > Users > *Your Username* > Documents"!
   
   
3. Delete the folder Native Instruments.
   
4. Restart Native Access.

2.1 If missing the Native Instruments folder
Please note that if you can't carry out the steps in chapter 2, you might be missing the “Native Instruments” folder at the above location.

1. Navigate to:
   C: > Users > Public > Public Documents
2. In this location please create a new folder and name it "Native Instruments".
3. Within that "Native Instruments" folder, create a new folder called "Native Access".
4. And finally, within the "Native Access" folder, create an additional folder named "ras3".
   The folder structure should then look like this:
   C: > Users > Public > Public Documents > Native Instruments > Native Access > ras3
   
5. Now open Native Access in administrator mode. This can be done by right-clicking the "Native Access.exe" and selecting "Run as administrator".

3. You have corrupted XML files
This can be solved by deleting the corrupted XML files and restarting Native Access.
You can do this as follows:

1. Navigate to:
   C: > Program Files > Common Files > Native Instruments > Service Center
2. Delete the Native Access.xml file and the *NAME OF PRODUCT IN DEMO MODE*.xml file.
3. Restart Native Access. New .xml files will automatically be created.

 

Hi,

now it’s really crazy....

I have now two folders with the same name.....the Public Documents Folder

C: > Users > Public > Public Documents

two times

in one folder everything is as it should but in the other its only NI Resources.

In the folder where you can only see the NI Resources is also containing the folder Native Access but you can’t see....
it to enter the folder you have to tip in the addressee manually....

Still thinking that Win 10 is doing some shitty thinks...

the good think is that I put inside that folder the ras3 with all VR licenses and most of the plug ins are working again but some not....
any suggestion are welcome again thanks to all members that are helping...
and one last thing
NEVER CHANGE A WINNING TEAM (or a working System)

 

and

these folders have different names...
or it was your mistake - look better at folders names.

what is the ui language of your system? english or any other?

 

Hi,
sorry for the confusion it was C: > Users > Public > Public Documents
the folder Public Documents was two times in...so i deleted both and change win 10 language to english and reinsall Ni Access but this time I saw that only a couple of legit plugins been activatet and some legit not in my NI Access. So put my Serial again in but nothing changed.
So this time I can only use two plugins that are also activated in Ni access but I do not understant where NI Access can see how many plugins are activated without the ras3 files...
And why are the plugin not checkin the root of
C: > Users > Public > Public Documents > Native Instruments > Native Access > ras3
I created that folder with all the licence...

 

you didn't untick, hide protected system files.
the ras3 folder is an hidden system file. the licenses are inside

Hi,

thank you for alle the advises bevor I can go through all that is their possibility to recover my deleted public folder

I create a new one but I search through google and saw that creating a new folder is not the same as windows creating it so any advises how to recreate the public folder under Windows 10…

 

btw

you need to turn on "show system files and folder" too.

open that folder in explorer entered full path, right click -> properties (of folder) -> attributes
and look at folder attributes to understand permission limitations, etc...

and little note: screenshots better then words, always.
