If you’ve been using Kontakt for a while then chances are that you’ve acquired some libraries that do not show up in the program’s “Libraries” tab and will not work with the “Add Library” button.
Why is that?
In order for a collection to appear in Kontakt’s Libraries tab with the graphic, the developer of the library has to pay Native Instruments a fee for the privilege. The developer and end user get some perks from this deal as well, but suffice it to say that the price point many developers sell at does not justify the spend.
So as a user, what are your options to organize and load files from these “Non-Kontakt Kontakt Libraries”?

One method is to use the “Files” tab. From here you can navigate around your entire computer and load any Kontakt friendly file by double-clicking or dragging it into the main window.
Press the “Files” tab in the upper left side to navigate around your entire computer.
But if you’d like to stay within the “Libraries” tab, there is something else you can do.Adopt the Kontakt Factory Library as a place to store all your other libraries.
The Factory Library comes with Kontakt and you should have it if you elected to add it when you installed the program. If you don’t have the Factory Library, you can go back and install it separately.
When you press the “Instruments” button you will see seven categories of factory sounds. This is where you can add your own libraries or categories.To do this you will need to navigate to the Kontakt Factory Library folder by pressing the gear icon and selecting “Open Containing Folder”. Next, open the “Instruments” folder. This is where you can add your own libraries.
