hi
this is what the documentation says about installing pd in windows:
"Pd is compiled under NT, but should work under any version of Windows since
95. Pd will appear as a "zip" file. Unzip this, creating a directory such
as \pd. (You can put it wherever you like but the path should have no spaces
in it; so "Program Files" would be a bad place.)"
greetings

This looks like a bug.

The search path has another function: It tells Pd, where to look for
objects (externals or abstractions) that are not built-in in Pd. All
those *.dll

have this directory in you Pd search path.

We all were novices once. Those questions aren't off-topic at all, so
you should post them to pd
