Bug reference: 17838 Logged by: Mike Lawrence Email address: mike.lawrence@dell.com PostgreSQL version: 13.9 Operating system: Windows 11 Enterprise Description:
I previously submitted this and was told it was not a proper bug. After receiving some response from the community, I am not doing anything wrong with the uninstall and have tried all available options. This appears to be a bug with the uninstaller, so it is impossible for me to uninstall PostgreSQL 13.9.3, which I no longer need as I am using version 15.1.1.
Whether using the uninstaller directly from the install directory, using Windows 11 Apps & features, or Control Panel's Uninstall or change a program, they all fail with the same error, "There has been an error. Unable to initialize any installation mode". I even tried compatibility mode for the uninstaller, but nothing enables the uninstaller to work.
