The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      17747
Logged by:          Jeff Laing
Email address:      jeff.laing@synchronoss.com
PostgreSQL version: 15.1
Operating system:   Windows
Description:

Our environment launches psql.exe via an intermediary application which
locates it by scanning the registry.

When a full installation of PostgreSQL is present, the
HKLM\SOFTWARE\PostgreSQL\Installations\postgresql-x64-14\Base Directory
value can be retrieved and the full path to psql.exe determined.

If a command-line-tools-only installation was used, this registry value is
not populated.
