Thread:

I am trying to re-install PostGresSQL on my computer by uninstalling it first.

When I try to re-install it and get to the screen that asks me to 'initialize the database cluster', it won't let me do
it,saying that I need to delete the data directory first. 

This is my question, How do I delete the data directory manually after uninstalling PostGres?

Postgres Version? Windows or Linux?
