I'm running into an issue with Kontakt and my external drive T9 SSD setup. I have multiple K'd Kontakt libraries stored on an external drive, and every time I open Kontakt, some of them show up as "Library Not Found – Click to Locate the Content."

I have some on my internal SSD and some on my External T9 SSD, and its the T9 external that seems to be the problem rememebering them? on Kontakt 6.71

I want to port them all over to my External SSD in future, so just trying to get this part right

When I manually locate the content, the libraries load up just fine, and I can play them without issues.

However, as soon as I restart Kontakt or open a new session in my DAW, the same libraries go missing again, and I have to repeat the process.

This happens every time I launch Kontakt, and it's getting frustrating. I just want my libraries to stay recognized so I don’t have to keep relocating them.

As mentioned, when found, the K'd libraries play fine from the T9 SSD, but just vanish when re-loading?

Kontakt 6.71 (k'd)

I have Kontakt 7.3.0 but I found Kontakt 6.71 a bit snappier, and is fine for me. Also Kontakt 6.71 has the 'Locate Library' that the later versions got rid of!

EDIT : Although i realise now that i have some Libraries that don't show in Kontakt 6.71 and i do need 7.3.0 for these. These libraries are missing in 7.3.0, and not sure how to get them back in 7.3 as it only has the 'manage libraries' tab now, and not 'locate library' ?

Any help would be great!
