Thanks for all the helpful comments. I need to get off the upgrading things every year rut. After spending way to much time deciding I went with the Komplete 15 upgrade. I finally determined it was more useful than getting the additional synths in Arturia 11 (although tempting) in that I have tons of synths already.

Late response but thanks! I was apparently downloading the wrong version. All is fine now.

None of the versions i downloaded will run on my windows 11 pc

I never understand what i should download on git hub!!!!!!! There are always dozens of files….WHICH ONE IS THE SYNTH ITSELF???
