postgres user does not exist yet, its a fresh new installation of
windows 7 Home. New HP laptop.
there is only my account (admin) and Guest

i saw on internet someone had similar problem and this was resolved by
removing HP protection tools tha was messing with policies, but i
already removed it before.
