The plate solving is in the Gear tab, called Pointcraft...you need to Connect Scope for it to be able to move the scope through ASCOM (although that's not required to solve an image you have captured). Check out the User Guide section XXVIII, it's practically idiot proof to set up. Be sure to input the correct focal length for your scope in the Tools tab.
Although I had tuned AstroTortilla for my different scopes, I find Pointcraft just works more reliably in practice.
Best 12.70euros I've spent in astronomy IMO.
