The link <http://puredata.info/docs/faq/how-do-i-install-externals-and-help-files?portal_status_message=Your+changes+have+been+saved> has long mentioned about global system folders that you can install Pd externals, but these are not created by Pd during installation, I think it should.

The user-specific folder is created in Mac OS, so it seems, but no tin windows/linux.

Regarding windows, the User-specific folder %AppData%\Pd is not created 

In Linux, the ~/.local/lib/pd/extra (preferred since version Pd-0.47-1) is not created
