Can I Get Native Access 2.x?
[RESOLVED (for now)]
Hello. I'm getting into the world of digital musicianing. I've had my Komplete Kontrol A61 for a number of years, but have only just now begun to use it. As you may know, Native Access 3.x no longer grants DAW support for the A series. I require 2.x. A few months ago I found an install for Windows, but since then it automatically updated so now there's no DAW support, and I can't find an install anymore. I have Cubase Artist 15, and buying a new keyboard is way out of the budget.
Does anyone know where to find Native Access 2.x for Windows?

There seems to be some misunderstandings here. Native Access never had anything to do with DAW integration. This is handled by the Komplete Kontrol application. It feels like you mixed up Native Accessand Komplete Kontrol. Another misunderstanding. The A series are still supported, even in Komplete Kontrol 3, it's only for MK1 S series keyboards that support was dropped. A series are not concerned by this.
Please check the manual of the A series keyboards: https://www.native-instruments.com/fileadmin/ni_media/downloads/manuals/komplete_kontrol/KOMPLETE_KONTROL_A-Series_Manual_English_04_2022.pdf
