now i have another window that is black
if this helps im using a school laptop (windows HP) and over the summer it had restrictions on it so i couldnt download or open anything
they just got taken off

Then maybe it's because the VST GUI isn't available to use.
Let me try downloading the VST if I have time.

I've downloaded the VST. It works fine for me. This could be a you-issue.

Lets test if VST works at all
You should try MDA-Piano http://mda.smartelectronix.com/synths.htm
It is very small in size, and you can just copy its dll to your VST-folder. Further its a quite good piano-instrument, so it is a win win
Lets know the outcome :)

i know this is gonna sound weird but its only that one vst all other ones i can find work

Normally i would say: "Then its that special VST that is flawed, dont use it" But i made an experimental install last week, and it does work, and for Monospace as well.
I cant say why you have this issue, what i would suggest is that you delete all parts of it, and fetch a new fresh DL, and try to 'install' that -witch is as simple as copying the dll into your VST-collection. It is odd, but thats my best take on it..

ok i will try that
also when it used to work i did not have it in the plugins folder but it still worked
ima try and see if plugins it in the plugins folder helps

[TheCreeperKidKing]

also if it still does not work would you be ok with finding an alternative
but not one with an exe installer
i use a school laptop and i would need admin to use exe installers
and i do not have admin

[TheCreeperKidKing]

it did not work
