Is there a problem with the installation of 8.1?  I’ve installed it 3 times but when I bring it up it still says I’m at 7.8.  The Help > About menu shows 7.8 as well.

What OS are you using?

Where did you get pgAdmin from?

How did you install it?

I am hesitant to uninstall and install from scratch because I don’t want to lose my connections, etc.

 

Thanks

I am running Windows 10.

I downloaded the Dec 14 release from pgadmin.org

I installed by double-clicking on the executable I downloaded and running through the installation wizard without making any changes.

Well that looks good to me. Unfortunately at the moment I don't have a Windows instance available 

I can test against.

Yes, I had done some searching without finding anything.  It’s odd because I have gone from 7.6 to 7.7 and 7.7 to 7.8 following the same steps. 

I will be able to access a Windows machine later today to test the download. In meantime asking on the

other mailing list might get you an answer sooner.

I downloaded and installed pgAdmin 8.1 and it shows up as such when I 
run it.

Look in:

D:\Users\dbarron-aas\AppData\Local\Programs\pgAdmin 4\runtime

for

pgAdmin4

Then double click on that. I'm guessing it will be 8.1.

Per Craig's comment I'm betting that the icon/shortcut you are clicking 
on currently is pointing back at the 7.x version.

I downloaded and installed pgAdmin 8.1 and it shows up as such when I run it.

Look in:

D:\Users\dbarron-aas\AppData\Local\Programs\pgAdmin 4\runtime

for

pgAdmin4

Then double click on that. I'm guessing it will be 8.1.

version.


The icon I am using to start points to D:\Users\dbarron-aas\AppData\Local\Programs\pgAdmin 4\v7\runtime\pgAdmin4.exe  
I did a search and that is the only pgAdmin4.exe installed.  When I double-click on it, 7.8 comes up.
I just went through the install again and there is no v8 directory but watching the install run I see that it's copying
filesto C:\Program Files\pgAdmin 4 instead.  
 
Interesting.  And Look!  It's 8.1.  Who would have thought.

Well, that's straightened out, anyway.  Now, can I uninstall v7 without losing all my connection data?
