I tested on Windows 7 and Pd does find deken in the right place now:

---
deken-plugin.tcl (Pd externals search) in C:/Users/rhaefeli/AppData/Roaming/Pd 
loaded.
Platform detected: Windows-i386-32bit
----

However, when I download freeverb, I get (deken window):

---
can't create directory "C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Pd": permission 
denied
can't create directory "C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Pd": permission 
denied
    while executing
"file mkdir $::deken::installpath"
    (procedure "::deken::clicked_link" line 3)
    invoked from within
"::deken::clicked_link .externals_searchui 
http://puredata.info/Members/chr15m/freeverb~(Windows-i386-32)-externals.zip 
freeverb~(Windows-i386-32)-exte..."
    (command bound to event)

Obviously, it still tries to download to the old path. 

For loading externals, Pd apparently checks old and new style paths.
Maybe deken just picks the first and doesn't try any other?
