the question is, why does it still try to use the old path? could it be something in the path settings?

could you do try the following?:

• start Pd
• turn on the tcl prompt (Menu: Help -> Tcl prompt)
• type in the tcl prompt run: ::pdwindow::post "$::sys_staticpath\n"

and see (and tell us) what it gives you.

Result:

{C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Pd} C:/Users/rhaefeli/AppData/Roaming/Pd H:/Downloads/pd_compiled/pd_compiled/extra

So it seems that deken just picks the first which cannot be assumed to be always the correct one (fine for loading, bad for writing).
