Unable to Choose, Change, or Navigate Presets, Wavetable, and Noise Samples in Serum

Hi, I downloaded the Serum demo this morning as I had heard a ton of great things about the plugin. However, when I open the plugin in my daw (Ableton), everything is working fine except that I cannot change or choose presets, wavetable, and noise samples from the default state like I see many Youtubers doing. Clicking the words or the arrows that should change these does nothing and it stays the same preset, wavetable, and noise. However, I can load the preset using the "load preset" button, and doing so also loads different wavetables and noise samples indicating that the presets are there but just aren't being accessed within the plugin. This is still really difficult, because I can't change wavetables or noise samples for experimentation, nor can I quickly sift through presets within the plugin. I have tried many things to fix the issue such as moving the preset folder to different areas such as C:/ or deleting and redownloading the demo, but nothing seems to work. The plugin seems fantastic otherwise, but I'm hesitant to invest in a plugin that might not work on my computer. I was wondering if these limitations might just be a part of the demo or if something else is wrong with my copy of Serum.
