Jibran,

Given this is not a PostGIS question, you should ask this on pg-general list instead.

https://www.postgresql.org/list/pgsql-general/

One thought, did you run the installer as an Administrator - Right click --> Run As Administrator?

Thanks,
Regina

Hello,

Apologies if this is an irrelevant question, here.

I have been trying to install PostgreSQL 9.5.11 on Windows 10 (x64) using Enterprise DB interactive installer. But, no success.
I keep getting this error.

I am aware about the BigSQL installers but I prefer the Enterprise DB one :).

I came across the similar issue here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46118851/unable-to-install-postgresql-on-windows-10

A little googling routed me towards some proposed solutions (here<http://1stopit.blogspot.dk/2011/01/postgresql-83-and-84-fails-to-install.html> and here<https://serverfault.com/questions/230219/vbscript-wont-run-for-domain-user-on-windows-server-2008-r2>).
I tried them but, no success.

Here is the error message, I am getting.

Can somebody suggest the workaround to fix this issue?
