    hello, I,m not going to say I,m expert or beginner in NI world. I,m having an issue is when you add a library using KLU tool the name of the library changes, I have over 700 library and I want to have them or at least what in the Kontakt browser shows with picture.
    the problem is some of the name contain special characters and that's make the the browser break and can't change and can't have a picture.

    I searched everywhere on the internet and computer and I can't find where Kontakt 8 save the Kontakt browser names at.
    as you can see from the snapshots for example Ashlight on the Kontakt 8 browser is called
    ( Native Instruments - Ashlight 1.6 ) which the special character causing an issue even if I change the folder name in '/Users/Shared/NI Resources/image'.
    so any help will be appreciated.

    please see the snapshots for more details.

    apple Mac mini M4 with macOS 15.6
