Thank you for sharing details. We are unable to reproduce the issue on Windows Server 2022. It could be Windows 11 specific. We are going to verify it on WIndows 11 and get back to you.

Hi Sandeep; 

Sorry for late reply.

LCID             Name             DisplayName

----             ----             -----------

1055             tr-TR            Türkçe (Türkiye)

For postgresql create db script is  (on pgadmin) : 

-- Database: postgres

-- DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS postgres;

CREATE DATABASE postgres

    WITH

    OWNER = postgres

    ENCODING = 'UTF8'

    LC_COLLATE = 'C'

    LOCALE_PROVIDER = 'libc'

    TABLESPACE = pg_default

    CONNECTION LIMIT = -1

    IS_TEMPLATE = False;

COMMENT ON DATABASE postgres

    IS 'default administrative connection database';

Notes: 

Problem is not related for admin rights (executing setup exe and folder permission rights)

We have the same issue on Windows 10 Enterprise 22H2 build 19045.4412 when running postgresql-16.3-1-windows-x64.exe.

Postgres 15.6 is installed already. Postgres 16.2 was previously installed and removed, directories are deleted.

The installer shows the error message as soon as started, not showing any prompt page.

The installation log is attached.

Thanks,

Kamil Adem

Hi Ugur,

We couldn't reproduce the issue on Windows 11 as well. Here is what we did to reproduce. Can you please share the installation log from the system temp? That may give some clue.
