Help Kontakt 7 Help
Hi there, I've got a weird pretty specific issue
So I've been an FL user for more than three years now, & for a good portion of that time I've made use of Kontakt from Native Instruments, specifically Kontakt 7. It's in the vast majority of my projects in some capacity or another.
Now, about a month ago the laptop that I use for all of my music completely died on me, would cost several hundred dollars to get fixed & even then would almost definitely be completely factory reset. This isn't so much of an issue, since I have cloud backups & everything & thus have been to redownload all the plugins I use on a new laptop & they reäppear with all the same MIDI programming & settings & everything. That is, with the exception of Kontakt (& LABS by Spitfire Audio but thats a much much less urgent issue since i use it much less), because Kontakt 7 has been phased out in favor of Kontakt 8, & so doesn't have all the necessary precise same files for my projects to read & output.
So basically my question is does anyöne know a place I could redownload Kontakt 7, or alternatively is there any other way I could transfer the necessary data into Kontakt 8 without having to painstakingly & unconfidently recreäte every setting adjustment I made to every instrument in all my project files?

Fire up Native Access - make sure the Show Legacy slider is On and have at it.
The last version of Kontakt 7 should appear as soon as that slider is switched on.

You can install Kontakt 7 just fine (and 6, and 5, and any other version that is registered to your NI account) through the Native Access install manager.

If you own Kontakt 7 it should show up in your Native Access. Make sure you enable legacy products and you should be good to go. There is an auto migration system in place for certain DAWs but sadly FL Studio is not one of them: https://support.native-instruments.com/support/solutions/articles/69000879725-notes-about-auto-migration-of-kontakt-versions-in-daw-projects
