Trouble with Optical Flares Version 1.3.5 In AE CC 2018

[vid2164]

I'm having trouble with Video Copilot's Optical Flares version 1.3.5 in AE 2018. I've downloaded the plug in and installed it the proper way and generated a license. After restarting After Effects, creating a new comp, and creating a new Solid, then adding Optical Flares, I can see the effect in the comp window and can change settings in Effects Control such as the XY Position and Center Position, Brightness and Scale, but the flare stays at its default position. When I go into the plug in this is what I see. Has anyone experienced this, and what can I do to fix it? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Turn off GPU acceleration in the plug-in's settings.
