[PD] deken and windows

[Lucas Cordiviola]

Wait a second.

You have Pd-extended & Pd 0.47.1 both installed on the “C:\Program Files (x86)\” ?

Describe your folders on “Program Files (x86)”. (1)

Or tell us if you installed any of them somewhere else.

Anyway you can give “write access” to your running “extra” folder & have the benefits of not sharing externals if that's your wish.

Go to your “extra” folder and right-click, properties, security tab, select the user and... (I don't have a win10 ATM, is there an “Edit button”?)

(1) both apps install (by default) to a Pd folder here, I never had a system with both Pds normally installed.

it's funny, cause I usually install (and prefer to) in the extra folder of the Pd app (Pd/Contents/Resources/extra).

It's also funny that deken always offers to install in ~/Library/Pd but you can never set it to somewhere else, like in the app as I like. Maybe it could remember last time I asked it to download and so next time it asks it would ask you if you still want in that same place...

> next time deken should offer you that dir.

but it doesn't! So i got a bug here I guess...

so, even if I change to somewhere I want, it keeps asking back in the place that it is set to... and in this case it is choosing this folder that I can't write to...

I wonder why I got a different default folder, if it is not supposed to be it, it is a bug...

and besides the bug, I also have this discussion/request on it being able to remember where I like putting my externals...

and, yeah, we could update that web page...

well, I'm too busy right now with something else, will get back to this next week :)

cheers
