After doing allot of clicks with the permissions. It automagically fixed itself. Fantastic! The root problem was Windows itself! I would recommend the EnterpriseDB folks to consider this though, because in someway its affecting your software. Thank you all. Now join my new thread for real discus

Jennifer, obviously you are on windows. And the problem you are describing seems to be: "after running the tuning wizzard, the PostgreSQL Service does not start any more" AT the same time you are describing some problem of "you are not able to delete some Files / Directories connected with Post

Hehe, I am not saying that you are untruthful, but obviously there is more to this issue than just the .conf file. Because when returning to the old conf the problem is still there and I am also certain that this problem was not there before I just installed the tuning wizard. Would you at least
