    Hello All,


    I am currently using Bob's Kontakt v7.6.0 virtually without issue. My only problem is that there does not appear to be a way to fully delete a library once it's been added using Bob's Library Manager. There is no option for "Delete Library". I can uncheck the library from the "Lib Organizer" but all that does is hide it. Am I missing something? I would like to be able to add, test, and then delete libraries without having the deleted "ghosts" remain. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks for your help.

    John

    you can delete the residual regedit key.
    here:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Native Instruments
    but also here in some case:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Native Instruments

    Also check for a matching residual XML file in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Native Instruments\Service Center

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