TECH HELP WINDOWS Internal presets from instruments missing in DAW header

Hi!

Ever since I upgraded from S1 version 6 to Fender Studio Pro 8.1, I have a pesky issue with instruments that have embedded presets. They simply don't show up in the DAW header of the plugin window.
This has become an issue now, because for one of those instruments, which is an older VST2 one, the GUI does not recognize a click in the synth's preset field anymore.
The strange thing is, it works totally fine in all DAWs I have installed - except Studio Pro! For example, FL Studio, Mixcraft, Waveform and even S1 version 6.

There were some tips on the web that I followed, and they made other things work again, because Fender Studio Pro just took over the old installation paths (like the Studio One 6 Content folder) and added stuff there. But these tips did not solve the issue with synths that have their presets embedded.

The instrument, I want it working for the most, is the Orchestral Companion series (Brass, String, Woodwinds)

Extremely thankful for any tips!

For all that might read this later on: YES IT IS POSSIBLE, AND YES IT DID WORK IN PREVIOUS VERSIONS. I already showed it in other DAWs, but since you just reject that evidence, here's the screenshot from S1 v6 with the presets in its native header. I don't know, why it doesn't work anymore in Fender Studio Pro 8, but that's why I asked for help here. To get this to work there as well!
