    I have a problem that I've seen before. My Kontakt instance is failing to load. Its name shows up in red italics with exclamation points before and after. 

    I found one previous forum post that seemed similar, but that user was on a Mac; I'm on Windows 11. 

    My initial question is the general one -- what do the red italics indicate, specifically?

    Hi!

    Plugins marked like that mean that VE Pro can not find the plugin format that was used in the project at hand. Reasons for that can be:

    - AU Plugins are not available on Windows (if the project was set up like that on a Mac)
    - VST2 vs VST3 (only one is installed or both are missing)
    - VE Pro does not know where to find the plugins (for VST2)

    Best,
    Andreas

    Thanks Andreas

    That's strange. Kontakt 7 is there in my VST3 folder, but it is not showing up in the VST3 list in VEPro. There's an entry for Kontakt -- which I take to be for the Kontakt Player.

    Hi! If you hover over the red plugin you can read what format was used originally. Best to email us at support@vsl.co.at for further troubleshooting!

    Best,
