Thread: [pgadmin-support] PGAdmin Installation x86 or x64 which is it?
Hi,
OK so I've downloaded the very latest Enterprise Data Base PostgreSQL x64 installer for Windows 10 which installed very easily.
First thing I noticed was PGAdmin 4 was VERY slow until after I did a reboot. I'm sure this is just one of those things, but noting it anyway.
Right so as to this problem
I open PGAdmin 4 and it complains that it is version 1.2 and I need to upgrade to 1.3, so go to the download page
Click the link and there is only a x86 version.
Trouble is the EDB installer has installed PGAdmin in "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.6\pgAdmin 4" which is a x64 directory.
I really don't want to have two copies of PGAdmin 4 on my computer, or any computer for that matter, so what is the correct way to deal with this situation?
Will a x64 version be made available or has the version installed with the EDB installation been installed into a x64 folder when it is really an x86 application and should therefore be in a "C:\Program Files (x86)" folder. Which would be very confusing...
Simply put, how do I upgrade my PGAdmin 4 without having two copies on the computer?
Thanks and best regards

Upgrade PostgreSQL. I believe the updated packages should be available later today (there was an unexpected delay). If you install using the PostgreSQL installers, then that is how you should upgrade. Various companies/groups offer packages that include pgAdmin, and none of them offer compatibility with other packages. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
