Repair Library installs unwanted instrument libs

Post by 8O » Sun May 03, 2009 9:27 pm

Just a quick one, and maybe it's been asked on here before, but the first few pages of search results didn't help...

I was deleting some stuff to free up disk space and thought I'd click on repair library afterwards just to be on the safe side. It then proceeded to install libraries for all of the Suite instruments even though I don't have the Suite (i.e. it installs all the preset packs for Analog, Electric, etc, even though I don't own any of these instruments).

Is this correct operation? Shouldn't repair library just repair the stuff I've purchased and not extra stuff I cannot use?

I'm on L8.0.1, by the way...

Ditto. My sets from LIve 7 are now not working since upgrading to LIve 8 and all tha extra stuff I don't want is included - I did a repair library to get stuff functional and now most things I drop on a track are things I haven't purchased. Getting frustrated with Live 8.

I haven't found a solution that supports all my old Live Sets
