I tried all the combinations, as mentioned in the document

"E:\DBBackup\bin\pg_dump.exe" -h 192.168.1.1 -p 5432 -U <username> --no-blobs -F c -v -f "E:\DBBackup\demo6_110420251637.bak" demo6 

"E:\DBBackup\bin\pg_dump.exe" -h 192.168.1.1 -p 5432 -U <username> -B -F c -v -f "E:\DBBackup\demo6_110420251637.bak" demo6 

"E:\DBBackup\bin\pg_dump.exe" -h 192.168.1.1 -p 5432 -U <username> -B --no-blobs -F c -v -f "E:\DBBackup\demo6_110420251637.bak" demo6 

With version 15
--no-large-objects  is not working.
I tried with all the other combinations.  NO LUCK.

bytea field also included in the backup.   

I tried taking backup using pg_dump of version 17 also, with no luck.   [ Database version is 15 and the pg_dump version is 17 ]. 

Confirming this after restoring the backup file in a new database.   The new database contains contents from bytea field also.  

Either my command should be wrong or I'm missing something.

1) Short version

Short version bytea fields != large objects.

2) Long version

From here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pgdump.html

-B
--no-large-objects
--no-blobs (deprecated)

    Exclude large objects in the dump.

    When both -b and -B are given, the behavior is to output large
objects, when data is being dumped, see the -b documentation.

Where large objects are defined here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/largeobjects.html
