From the mention of Stackbuilder I am going to assume you have
installed using the EDB installer. pgAdmin4 runs as a client/server app
where the server is a HTTP server that runs the application you then
connect to with a browser. From your error message it looks like the
server is either not running or it is running and the client(browser)
cannot find it. Not sure how this is setup on Windows. My suggestion
would to ask here:
