I downloaded the portable version of Postegresql from

It works but the problem is that to start the server you must load it
from the gui. Instead since I want to start the server from my app, I
need to understand how to load it manually. I tried starting
postgres.exe but it's saying:
Execution of PostgreSQL by a user with administrative permissions is not
permitted.
You should use pg_ctl instead. That will take care of dropping any administrative rights the current user might have. I'm using a set of batch files to create a "portable" postgres, and I use pg_ctl for that purpose even with administrator account.
