Sometimes I read upon the importance of using /user/AppData/Roaming/Pd
This is one of the default places that pd "Knows", so if you put externals there you don't need to -path or [declare] anything. Just do deken, when prompt select %appdata%\pd and even without restarting they are ON. Restart the browser and you will see the new externals.
To create the objects you must specify the folder I.e [ggee/getdir] not just [getdir]
%appdata% has the same behavior as yourrunning-pd/extra
But which method you choose depends on other personal considerations or projects/work-flows you are in.

Thanks for the practical tips! Appreciated! It´s also good to be able to change the font and fontsize to a good windows standard, also another thing that was annoying when switching from Pd Extended to Pd Vanilla overcome! Consolas 12 seems like a good choice!
I think upon uninstall of Pd the extra folders are left untouched, so I think I will continue to have extra libraries there (pd/extra). Sometimes I read upon the importance of using /user/AppData/Roaming/Pd or Program/Common Files/Pd . How to think and act upon these considerations? I bet this been discussed alot before, maybe a new thread if not? Of course it is platform dependant and now here I am speaking windows considerations.
