Install Nexus 5.
From the Nexus 5 Content folder :
If you are a new Nexus user and you do not have previously released Nexus 4 libraries, just specify the folder location
“Nexus 5 Content” folder included in this distribution during the installation of the Nexus
You can also change the location of the Content folder by editing Settings.json in “C:\Users\Public\Documents\reFX\NEXUS”
(Using a text document to edit)
Use a double reverse \\ slash between the splits of the folders.
Thanks a lot brother,it works
So many typos. How the f**k is anyone installing this without it crashing and dying?

Solução
Execute este arquivo como administrador onde a pasta NEXUS LIBRARY está localizada
Caso você também esteja enfrentando problemas de não ouvir a visualização do som dentro do nexus, basta copiar a pasta NKS dentro da pasta NEXUS LIBRARY.
Esta pasta NKS não está contida neste link que enviei, mas geralmente vem com o arquivo baixado, ou fácil de encontrar na rede.
