2. All settings are saved in the program's portable folder (the Windows registry and other system stores are not used, administrator rights are not required * ).
3. Integrated Library Manager, which provides full control over protected libraries, and also allows you to register unprotected (self-made) libraries without generating nicnt files.

Kontakt PORTABLE is not compatible with the NKS (Native Kontrol Standard):

Accordingly, they cannot be selected, previewed and downloaded directly from the device's browser, but only through the interface of the Contact itself.
2. The controls of an NKS-compatible library instrument loaded into the Kontakt PORTABLE are not automatically bound to the controllers of the NKS device, only manually in the standard way for external MIDI devices (MIDI Learn).

How to install scattered library content in Kontakt PORTABLE
For the full operation of some libraries, it is not enough to download the library folder itself, you need to copy certain content from the library folder to one of the standard Windows folders in the user profile. Thus, some of the content of the library "scatters", goes beyond the library folder.
The search and storage of such files in Kontakt PORTABLE is redirected from the standard folders in the user profile to the Kontakt PORTABLE folder, namely to the UserData folder, where all the user data of the Contact is located.
The general principle of installing scattered library content.
You can find out in which folder these additional files should be uploaded from the manual, from the description or discussion of the distribution.
In general terms like this:
\ Native Instruments \rest of the path\ , where
is either My Documents
C:\Users\\Documents ,
or Local Application Data
C:\Users\\AppData\Local
We get the path to the folder where we need to copy the files so that the library working from Kontakt PORTABLE "sees" them:
1) Replace the path to the standard folder with the path to the UserData folder:
\ Native Instruments \rest of path\
2) Native Instruments is thrown out of the path (if any):
\remaining path\
3) If there is "Kontakt 5" in the rest of the path (the old library from the times of the 5th Contact), then we replace it with "Kontakt"
Examples of installing scattered content.
Vasya is involved in the examples , who has
a user profile here: C:\Users\Vasya\
- standard folder Local application data, respectively, here: C:\Users\Vasya\AppData\Local\
- standard folder My documents, respectively, here: C:\ Users\Vasya\Documents\
- Contact is here: E:\KontaktPORTABLE\
- All of His user data of the Contact is respectively here: E:\KontaktPORTABLE\UserData
