Re: Error when installing PostgreSQL 16.3.2 under system context NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM

OK, I see the system account does have the correct ACL on %TEMP%, so it's
odd the installation is failing. Also, I'm unable to reproduce the issue at
my end.

Could you please run the installer with the command line option
"--debugtrace debug.txt" and share this file? Also, please share
installation log if produced and found at %TEMP%
