Oh, I'm sure it's possible to get rid of it. I doubt that will magically fix your Access Denied errors, though. You haven't explained why you think those things are connected, and my guess is they aren't. People on this mailing list are going out of their way to help you because no one here wants you to walk away with a bad impression of PostgreSQL. But the fact is that you haven't really provided nearly enough information to actually help you. You've provided some out-takes from our manual, which proves that however you installed PostgreSQL, that process also installed the manual. But, uh, so what? If you had installed PostgreSQL using the usual PostgreSQL installers, you would be able to uninstall it using Add/Remove Programs. If you can't, then either you used some other installer or there's something else weird going on on your system. But if it was another installer, where did it come from? If there's something else screwed up on the machine, what is it? It's pretty well impossible for anyone on this mailing list to know those things. And even if we did, and could tell you how to get PostgreSQL uninstalled from your machine, I don't think that's going to fix the permissions on your home directory. My guess is that you've got a lot of random junk installed on this machine, not just PostgreSQL. That's partly based on what you've said, but mostly based on the fact that nearly every Windows machine I've ever seen has a lot of random junk installed on it. You might be better off taking it to your local computer shop, rather than consulting this mailing list. Somebody who can actually sit down in front of the computer can probably fix up whatever is wrong with it in an hour or two, or at least tell you what will be required to get it fixed. There are several people on this mailing list (not including me, I'm afraid) who are knowledgeable enough to talk you through fixing just about whatever you real problem is here, but whether they want to volunteer their time to fix a problem that's probably only tangentially related to PostgreSQL - if at all - I'm not sure. Getting someone knowledgeable to sit down in front of the computer and poke at it a bit seems likely to get you the results you are looking for quite a bit more quickly. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
