R2R Installation Tutorial

0. Uninstall the previous version.

1. Install the software.

2. Go to "%COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Native Instruments\Service Center\".

If there is no "NativeAccess.xml" there, copy the included "NativeAccess.xml" there.

If there is "NativeAccess.xml", check its size.

If your file is smaller than the included one, please copy our file (your file should be the older one).

— Technical Notes from a Plugin Geek —————————————————-
Older NI products used to use RAS2 (ECDSA) for protection.
They now use RAS3 (JWT/RS256) as a modern licensing solution.
"NativeAccess.xml" contains information about which products/versions use RAS2 and RAS3.
If this information is outdated, some newer products may not function as NI intended.
Legitimate NI users use NativeAccess software to install/update software.
This means that legitimate users always have the latest "NativeAccess.xml" file on their computers.
