Thanks Adrian for the suggestion of running the installer with Admin
rights. Unfortunately, I get the same results. It appears that all of
the folders within C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.6 path are created, and
populated, BUT, when the items in the *data* folder are to be created,
or copied into, it leaves an error message as noted previously. The
*data* folder is empty.
It's almost as if the PC is missing a critical .dll needed in the *data*
folder filling function (my guess).
Again, I am at a loss as to what to do.
Dale
