    Hello everyone.

    I create nicnt files for the kontakt libraries I download, but what should I do with these nkr and nkc extension files?

    Is it necessary? Is there any problem if I delete it?

    Thanks.

    I'm still curious :)

    Should I delete the nkr and nkc files and create a nicnt file?
    Or is the nicnt file unnecessary when nkr and nkc already exist?

    I'm inexperienced with kontakt and I'm worried about having problems. Isn't asking and learning a good method?

    nkr = native kontakt resource

    which can contains image files for graphics , ir files , scripts and so on , they are nessary for this Librarys .

    nkc = native kontakt cache

    explains by the name already


    do you also delete files from your OS when you are an unexperienced User ?

    Dont mess with either of them if your intention is to actually use the library in question. Just create the NICNT. You also might want to grab a wallpaper file if you prefer a traditional Kontakt browser look.

    Meta studies suggest that "errorful" learning is slower to ramp up than "errorless" learning, but once ramped up, "errorful" learning beats "errorless". In other words, you'll learn faster by allowing yourself to fail; thoroughly studying a subject / problem in theory before committing to action is slow. Productive failure is king - if the stakes are low.
