Hi,
The spaces don't really matter for Pd. For most people Pd sits in
"c:\program files (x86)\Pd".
They do matter accessing media/text files from patches though.
Any installation of Pd on Windows will access the registry. I don't know
how that works on computers with limited rights.
Even on Windows 8, it can get a little tricky with the lowest safety
level, unless you go and change some stuff in the registry :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\EnableLUA
set to 0. With this tweak you have full admin rights.
Cheers
