I installed PostgreSQL and created the initial “very long” password and wrote it down.  Someone else did something to change it and now neither one of us can log into the DB.  So I tried to uninstall and reinstall but my “very long” password is not recognized and without it I cannot complete the installation.  I even tried removing all PostgreSQL stuff from the registry.  Does anyone know how I can blow away wherever that password is located and start fresh?

 

Thank you,

Patricia
