[PD] pd-extended is not extended

By the way,

I have

1) Pd "vanilla" which I donwloaded as a .zip and manually uninstalled 
into a folder without doing anything to "install" it; I run it by 
running the .exe file inside the bin folder
2) pd-extended which I downloaded as an executable installer and 
installed by executing the installer.

If I managed to get the registry settings working (which I have verified 
that are present in the registry), would then both pd's use them? If so, 
how can a pd-extended and a pd-vanilla coexist (and both work as 
expected) in the same machine?
