Thanks for your reply Marc. Yes I am looking at Windows and I was looking at pginstaller project before emailing. If my understanding is correct, the project aims developing a Win installer for normal windows program installation, with registry entries for future uninstallation etc. What I wanted is a no-trace (or minimal trace), no-admin required kind of installation (I won't be able to create a non-admin user in the comp), which, when I am done, I can just delete the installation directory and will be clear.

Is extracting necessary files from the msi installer a solution? Is there a way to extract fles from msi?
Thanks.

Hello Group:

Is there any 'portable' version of PostgreSQL for Windows? By 'portable' I mean, I can just unzip files, run the initdb and then run the postmaster and I get a temporary database server running on port 5432 and accepting connections?

Thanks.
