Question on Updating Kontakt v7.0.11 to v7.4.2

Discussion in 'Kontakt' started by pnutbuttrjarz, Aug 17, 2023.

  1. Just a quick question about updating from Bobdules v7.0.11 to v7.4.2.
    Do I have to uninstall, or can I install over the top and have all my libraries and quickload menu stay intact??
    Or will I have to re-register libraries and re-populate all my quickloads??
    Don't feel like going through the hassle of managing all my quickloads again. I understand re-registering libraries is simple enough with the R2R Kontakt Manager, but the quickloads take forever :(
    Thank for any help in advance.

    In my experience (Windows 10 Pro 22H2), I always needed to uninstall the previous version using Revo Uninstaller Pro to, only then, use the setup provided by Bobdule (then everything worked smoothly!). Whenever I tried installing over already installed version, I had some kind of problem and ended up having to install Native Access.

    About the re-registration, with Kontakt Button tool (add library sub-menu from Bobdule release), you register them all at once! If you're coming from R2R's Kontakt, it's worth re-registering to avoid any problems.
