On Windows 10 Enterprise, I’ve been trying to install multiple PostgreSQL versions (v10, v14, v16), but the installer always gives this error:

*Problem running post-install step. Installation may not complete correctly. The database cluster initialization failed.
Inside Services, the PostgreSQL service is not present. *

I’ve tried multiple variants:

1. running it with admin rights, not run it with admin
2. installing under EN-US locale
3. Installing the /data folder to other location than C:Program Files
4. also did all the indications from other discussions like the ones below, but I’m still not able to have a PostgreSQL service in services and to run a database:

Could you please advise on this?
