Is it me or Kontakt is becoming more and more bloated? 1.6gb for a library loader. Now it started with the whole "data tracking" thing of the Native Instruments conglomerate.
Thanks Moria for keeping us updated anyway :)

This update seems to have fixed the issue where the browser would load in Classic View on startup even after changing it to Fullscreen Browser in the options. Great! Thx
