download how to change the default library folder in native instruments maschine mk3 windows 10

This requires pretty much double the space that the installed app‑plus‑samples will occupy on your drive (give or take a bit of data compression). To install its libraries, Native Access needs first to download the library’s installer and then to unpack and run it - at which point it copies the data to the specified location.

That said, I suspect I know what’s happening, because I’ve previously run into a similar issue myself. SOS Reviews Editor Matt Houghton replies: The first thing to say is that if the advice that follows doesn’t work, you really should contact Native Instruments’ support staff to figure out what the problem is they should be able to help. I came back to find a message telling me that there’s not enough space on my drive to finish the installation - which clearly there is! I’ve tried Google, but no luck. I set Native Access to download a bunch of libraries and left it to do its thing overnight. I have a smallish system drive (250GB SSD) for Windows 10, so I got a separate 1TB drive to use with Native Instruments Komplete and told NI’s Native Access installer app to put the plug‑ins/apps on the system drive and the sample data on the external drive.

If you’re short on drive space and want to install Native Instruments libraries on another drive, don’t forget to change the download location as well as the content location.
