Session drummer

I recently upgrade my computer and had to re-load all my Cakewalk purchased softwares.
Everything seems to have worked fine except Session Drummer.
When I call it up in my plug-ins I get the following message: THE FOLLOWING PLUG-IN FAILED TO LOAD.
I have Sonar X3 Producer. 
I was under the impression the Sonar X3 Producer included Session Drummer. Which I have on my previous computer.
 
Can anyone help?
 
Thank you in advance for any replies.

    X3 Producer includes Session Drummer 3 (probably renamed Session Drummer by the time of this release). Try running an advanced install to reinstall the plug-in.

    A couple of screens into the X3 install is an option for basic/advanced install. Selecting advanced install proceeds to a checklist of components to install. This is how to pick one or more items to (re)install.

    Thank you Scott.
    I have tried what the video shows and I still was not able to load Session drummer.
    I even unloaded Sonar X3 and restarted from Zero. Everything  loads OK except Session drummer.
    I was wondering if Windows 10 might have anything to do with my problem.
    My laptop on which Sonar X3 was originally installed was on Windows 7. Everything operates fine there.
    I still get the message " The following vst plug-in failed to load ".
    What might I be doing wrong.
    I would hate to have to unload and reload Sonar once again.....very time consuming.
     
    Thank's again for any help.
    Much appreciated.
     
    Regards.

    Probably not a Win10 problem. There may be some MS libs missing, see http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/Knowledge-Base/2007013357/Session-Drummer-3-is-not-being-recognized-by-SONAR-X3
     
    Forgot about this issue, it came up early in the X3 release cycle.

    Thank you Scook  but I went  into the link and it seems that the download is no longer available from Microsoft.
    I guess I am out of luck and if I want to use Session Drummer I must stick with my laptop and Windows 7.
     
    Thank you all for your help. Very much appreciated.
    Regards

    Thank you Scook, but still unable to get the Windows visual download and therefore Session Drummer.
    Please do not spend any more time on the issue.
    I was able to obtain 2 other drum softwares which I will use in lieu of Session Drummer.
    Thank you again for all your effort, but it is time to move on and forget about it.
    Regards
