As of 0.40 you can run "pd -noprefs" (from the command line or using a shortcut) to get Pd running without preferences. There are probably several other things you can do in the preferences that will break Pd badly enough that you will have to do this. One example is that loading a buggy "library" can crash Pd on startup.

Thanks for the advice re regedit - it worked fine.
Presumably, if you want to run -nogui in Windows you should only do it as a command-line parameter when launching PD from the command-line. It would be nice if the flag could be deactivated somehow.

Hi,
I made the stupid mistake of setting the -nogui flag in the command-line input box from the PD menu and now when I launch PD, nothing appears. I thought it would still have the main interface, but
no patch windows :( .
I've tried reinstalling but the setting remained. Which file do I need
to edit to remove the -nogui from the startup options?
you need to edit the registry. try RegEdit.exe, from the Run option in the STart menu..
I'm running a fairly new version (the extended version with all the packages) on Win98.
Can anyone please help?
