The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 18615
Logged by: neeral85
Email address: neral85(at)gmx(dot)de
PostgreSQL version: 16.4
Operating system: Windows x64
Description:

16.2 could be executed as "nt-autorität\system" while 16.4 cannot be
executed as "nt-autorität\system"

This is required by patch management software as it runs any installation as
"nt-autorität\system" and not with current login user.
