    Hi audiosexers ;)
    This one gives me a headache..
    I installed NI FM8 and Massive. Last R2R releases. I followed the steps, but can't activate them, because of this: 'nativeaccess.xml not found'.
    Kontakt 7 (bobdule) is fine.
    I'm on Windows 11 PC. Activation not working as Standalone or in Studio One.

    Thanks in advance for any hint!

    In the R2R folder along with Keygen is another folder with the .XML.
    Follow instructions to place it in:
    "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Native Instruments\Service Center"

    If you want a more recent NativeAccess.xml, there are newer R2R releases which contain newer XMLs.

    [Nice vote below, but this is not a winner....only confirmation the OP did things proper. :bow: ]

    Thank you @DoubleTake, as I said, I followed the R2R steps. Having your input shows me I did it correct. I also used a newer NativeAccess.xml.
    As I said above: It gives an error -> "Native Access can't be found. You will be forwarded to the download page."
    To me it seems something is messed up in the path where FM8 and Massive are looking for the NativeAccess.xml.

    Now I've installed Absynth 5.
    The keygen has an entry to activate all suported NI stuff. Now it works :)

    Edit: As @DoubleTake mentioned below: Also newer Keygens have this option.

    I will look at registry and see if I see paths in there..
    [edit: I found no .xml paths, but license entries are in there]
    [edit: i see the same keygen for all those recent R2Rs and they all seem to have "register all supported products', so perhaps no need to download the Absynth5 ... except it is a cool synth anyway (but small gui) :rofl:]

    That's great to know...it might help others!

    @DoubleTake Thank you for the hint!
    My solution shows, that sometimes do not follow R2R steps, but only sometimes ;)
    Yeah.. that small GUI :facepalm:Not sure, but I think if changing DPI maybe? for the DAW they are bigger, but not sure anymore.
