Factory restore questions

Post by musicbysterling »

I want to restore my Kronos 2 back to factory default. If I do this, what will happen to the Purgatory Creek licenses that I own? Will I have to renew each one through Korg?

Restoring your Korg Kronos 2 to factory default settings will erase all user data and settings, including any installed licenses. Therefore, if you restore your Kronos 2 to its factory default settings, you will lose your Purgatory Creek libraries.

To continue using the Purgatory Creek libraries, you will need to reinstall them after restoring your Kronos 2 to its factory default settings. You can do this by following the same installation process you used initially to install the licenses.

In short, I hope you still have the key codes to unlock the libraries as you will need to enter that data again.

Kind regards
Sharp.

What are you trying to accomplish? You may not need to perform a factory restore procedure, if you are merely wanting to restore the default Programs and Combi’s.

In case you’re not aware, the original PCG should be present in the Factory directory, and you can load data directly from that file.
