Screen stops scrolling if you click anywhere while in motion. You can click anywhere again or hit PAUSE 2x, or PAUSE and PLAY to resume the scrolling screen.

sjoens's post in How to "preserve" finished projects? was marked as the answer
Simple MIDI projects are easy to preserve as noted. But if you have specific instruments & FX you want to save as well...
To archive, simply keep a back up copy of the project folder on another drive or CD/DVD.
CbB uses Per-Project Audio Folders, and keeps all project files and folders within the main project folder.
To preserve plugins you can freeze or bounce the tracks which will lock them in place "audibly", but you won't be able to edit the parameters without unfreezing & reusing the same plugins at a later date. And you'll now have wave files in the project.
FWIW I don't use Instrument tracks, but separate MIDI & Synth tracks. Freezing these maintains your MIDI & audio in separate tracks.
Freezing Instrument (combined MIDI & Synth) tracks doesn't loose the MIDI data, it just locks it in rendered form. You can later unfreeze it to edit the MIDI. However, under the right conditions the freeze/unfreeze function can fail so I personally don't trust this method... anymore.
Bundle files are not recommended for archiving. They can become problematic or corrupted over time.

sjoens's post in Sonar Home Studio 7 Cakewalk FX plugin help was marked as the answer
There is no "auto-tune" in Sonar/Cakewalk.
The flanger you've highlighted does seem to be DOA. Skip it and continue down the list to "Cakewalk > Flanger…" and it will open.
Just below 'Cakewalk' is 'Sonitusfx' so you already have those too, tho I don't see a flanger there.
To install plugins (dll files), just place them in the Cakewalk VST folder and run a scan to pick them up.
To install plugins (exe files), just double click the file and run the installer.
Also, the "Process" menu will 'permanently apply the effect to the audio clip. It may be better to add the flanger to the FX bin first so you can play with the settings nondestructively. Once you've settled on the right settings then you can "process" it if you want.
