I downloaded and installed scaler 2 but when i go open it in my DAW it just gives me a menu that says: video tutorial, online community and manual and doesnt let me access the plugin but when i play on my midi keyboard you can hear the notes playing and it also gives me white noise/static from my monitors  
What would be the situation?

1. hit ‘windows’ key on your keyboard
2. in search field put ScalerSettings
3. run ScalerSettings.exe
4. change view size to something smaller

5. (not sure if needed but…) restart your DAW

This stupid problem wasted a day for me to troubleshoot. I hope the developer can fix it. Thanks a lot.
