Ok, I manually added a library in preferences/startup (which worked

Yes, on Windows, they'll share preferences. I suppose that shouldn't
be, like Pd-extended should use "Pd-extended" as the registry path.
File a bug report/feature request if you want it to be, and I'll take
a look when I have time.
So:
- Is it an error in the .reg file that stores the settings in a
location different from that actually used by pd, or is it Vista
that uses a different location than XP? or is it some setting in
Windows that the user can change (obviously for all programs but I
wouldn't mind)?
So perhaps there is an error, btu I don't have access to a Vista
machine. I think other people are using Pd-extneded on Vista, maybe
they can help. If you think there is a problem/bug, then please file
a bug report.

and a PD Vanilla on the same computer?
Well I guess one solution would be to create a .BAT file to load pd
with the -lib option and the whole list of libraries (which I can
get from the .reg file). Will that be all (provided that I use the binary from pd extended
with its whole folder), or would I miss something that way (some
path setting or whatever)?
Yeah, at .bat for Pd-vanilla or add -noprefs to the shortcut for
launching Pd-vanilla.
