I've shared a test installer with the fix with you. Can you please check the inbox for the ShareFile location of the test installer postgresql-16.3-0.0snapshot10215430698.828.1.2cb8f3d.2-windows-x64.exe
Bug reference: 18572 Logged by: Paul Tobey Email address: ptobey@rainbird.com PostgreSQL version: 16.3 Operating system: Windows 10 Description:
When installing on Windows 10 I've hit this error, displayed in a dialog during unattended mode installation:
"Error copying file from packed archive [location] to [temp folder]/prerun_checks.vbs: Destination not writable" with Abort, Retry, Ignore
If I Abort, the follow up message is:
"system's temp folder is not writable by the current user"
The folder *is* writable by the user running the exe (who is a member of the Administrators group, BTW). I've captured the installbuilder_installer_[number].log file, but there's nothing very obviously useful there (I've obfuscated my domain and user names):

As I recall, there was a similar issue in Windows Server for a time, fixed in 16.3-2. There still seems to be a problem in the Win 1x OSes.
