Installation file for PostgreSQL 12.1 stops runnings after a few seconds on Windows 10 Famille

[NicolF]

Hello,

I am using Windows 10 Famille and I can’t install PosgreSQL after downloading the file « postgresql-12.1-1-windows-x64.exe ».

When I launch the installer, it stops running after a few seconds, when the image « EDB POSTGRES » disappears.

My account is an Administrator. I also tried to install with using the hidden Administrator account on Windows 10. And I completely uninstalled Avast and turned off firewalls. No change.

See the LOG below :

Hi,

Could you please check the below things :

- The permissions are set correctly on the data directory.

- Create the DB cluster manually using the initdb utility

Also, could you please share the complete installation logs with us for the analysis.

Thanks, It finally worked after uninstalling a second anti-virus McAfee that I thought it was not active...
