Problem installing PostgreSQL version 12.4 on Windows 10

Question

I am facing an issue when I am trying to install PostgreSQL on Windows 10. I have downloaded the application (v12.4) from https://www.enterprisedb.com/downloads/postgres-postgresql-downloads but when I try to invoke the graphical installer, the installation wizard does not appear even after I have assumed administrator privileges (Using "Run as administrator").

I have also tried changing the compatibility and disabling firewall but nothing is working. The log of the installer is as shown but I can't figure out what is wrong.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

After downloading the installer, just right click on that and select run as administrator. That should launch the installer in GUI mode.

EDIT: We are able to resolve the issue after uninstalling the anti-virus.
