-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I found this same problem. The uninstall really needs to remove this account. Either that, or the next install process needs to be able to get the random password somehow. Open a command prompt, then use the command "net user /delete postgres" to get rid of the account. "net user" shows all users. - -- Jim McMaster mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
