Hi Dave,

 

Thank you for your note.  I was wondering why there was a disconnect.  I had to download gpg4Win and reference a StackOverflow post for the public key for pgAdmin before I could verify the asc file and the exe file.  I think you path is much easier unless there is a pointer to the correct public key.

 

Again, thank you for your support.

To Whom It May Concern:

 

I tried to download pgAdmin 4.18 and 4.19 for Windows, but I cannot use the corresponding asc files posted at https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/pgadmin/pgadmin4/v4.18/windows/ or at https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/pgadmin/pgadmin4/v4.19/windows/ to verify the installers.  What must be done to allow for verifying the installers?

 

Thank you for your assistance.


They're largely irrelevant for the Windows installers to be honest; that because the installers themselves are codesigned, so Windows will automatically check them and warn you if the signatures are invalid or not.

 

I might just remove the sigs for the Windows installers (and the Mac ones, which are also codesigned using macOS' native technology).
