As far as I know, the latency setting in Pd just sets a maximum buffer
size, it doesn't necessarily translate to actual measured latency.
Try a blind test and see if you can tell the difference, that'll be a
much better test.
As for the search paths, you are much better of not setting them as
global preferences. Instead, use the standard install locations for
installing things globally:

And for paths needed for patches/projects, use [declare -path].

Okay, I installed the latest version.
Good news: Pd-extended and my soundcard are getting along the way
they used to. this means setting Pd to 14 ms audio latency which is
not great, but I can live with it.Bad news: Pd is not saving the search paths that I add. I can't
remember if earlier versions required clicking a "save these
settings" kind of thing, but I could find no such option in this
version and at any rate it's not saving the paths.Medium news: while I can deal with the 14 ms latency, Pd vanilla was
working at around 2 ms (unless it was lying to me or obscuring
something - I only tried it with testtone) but I still can't figure
out how to get it to load libraries of external dlls. I'm just a
guitar player and not a computer programmer so I'm a little slow at
this stuff, but if you have a suggestion for this option I would
appreciate it.Thanks for all your work!

Hi .hc,
I was able to get the installer on Windows 7. I was able to get rid
of all the error message by deleting some line in the «path» and
«startup» windows. Mainly, libs that were no more in the pd extra
folder. The only error message I get for the moment is concerning
the pdlua folder (unable to find the symbol of something like
that). I will try to find the bug tonight.Thank's
Marc

Ok, after a long time without a decently working Windows build, I
think
we have one that is actually usable. Please give it a try and let
me
know. Here's the zip:
