I've been trying to reinstall postgres but every time I do it asks me for a password. I don't even remember creating a password. Any way around this?

What version are you reinstalling? Are you reinstalling your DB (is the old \data folder there)? Or did you delete it all and reinstalling fresh DB?


1) Uninstall PostgreSQL from the Windows Control Panel.
2) run the command - start > programs > accessories > command prompt > right-click > run as administrator
[PHP]net user postgres /delete [/PHP]
4) reboot.

Install postgresql. If you do want to use your old \data folder make sure you do not Initialize Database Cluster.

or computer management->services
open postgresql server -> log on tab and set up a new password there

...no need to uninstall the whole stuff.
