Wait a second.
You have Pd-extended & Pd 0.47.1 both installed on the “C:\Program Files (x86)\” ?
Describe your folders on “Program Files (x86)”. (1)
Or tell us if you installed any of them somewhere else.
Anyway you can give “write access” to your running “extra” folder & have the benefits of not sharing externals if that's your wish.
Go to your “extra” folder and right-click, properties, security tab, select the user and... (I don't have a win10 ATM, is there an “Edit button”?)
(1) both apps install (by default) to a Pd folder here, I never had a system with both Pds normally installed.

2017-02-17 2:55 GMT-02:00 Alexandre Torres Porres <porres@gmail.commailto:porres@gmail.com>: it's funny, cause I usually install (and prefer to) in the extra folder of the Pd app (Pd/Contents/Resources/extra).
It's also funny that deken always offers to install in ~/Library/Pd but you can never set it to somewhere else, like in the app as I like. Maybe it could remember last time I asked it to download and so next time it asks it would ask you if you still want in that same place...

next time deken should offer you that dir.
but it doesn't! So i got a bug here I guess...
so, even if I change to somewhere I want, it keeps asking back in the place that it is set to... and in this case it is choosing this folder that I can't write to...
I wonder why I got a different default folder, if it is not supposed to be it, it is a bug...
and besides the bug, I also have this discussion/request on it being able to remember where I like putting my externals...
and, yeah, we could update that web page...
well, I'm too busy right now with something else, will get back to this next week :)
cheers
