If you can't install the included pd-settings.reg, then you'll have
to use a .bat file. I can't think of any way around that,
unfortunately. You could use the pure:dyne LiveCD if those machines
let you boot from the CDROM drive.
Try double-clicking the included pd-settings.reg and see if it let's
you. It should install into the user's preferences, so most machines
allow write access to that, even when they are locked down.

hi
I am going to teach a short intro to PD at a uni where it is really difficult to get permission to install applications on the computers.
is there a way to have pd extended to fully work on a windows machine without running the installer? I need it to load the externals on startup, this is important.
I tried copying it from my machine but it does not load the
externals i need and i cannot introduce them manually into the startup because i dont have permissions to mess with the registry. I could run PD from a bat file but i dont like this solution, the windows console pops up
and experience tells me this is scary for this students.is there any simple solution to this?
thanks!
