The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 4581 Logged by: Henrik Svensson Email address: henrik.svens...@mydata.se PostgreSQL version: 8.3.1 Operating system: Windows XP SP2 Description: Difficult uninstall Details:
To remove PostgreSQL so you can reinstall it to my findings the following must be done: - Do "Control Panel" "Add Remove Programs" select "PostgreSQL 8.3" click "Remove". That's normal. - Delete all files (still remaining??!!) under C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL. - Remove the service-user postgres. The reinstall can't handle that this user exists (?!). - Delete all fields in the registry containing the substring postgre (???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!). I bet there is a simpler way, right? -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
