Presets / Snapshots installation
Important: The snapshot / preset installation needs to be done manually.
You can move the respective folder to the “User Content / Kontakt” folder in your Documents / Native Instruments folder. If this folder doesn’t exist you can create it. If the presets can’t be found, Kontakt won’t show and enable them. More detailed instructions can be found in the documentation.
