Hello there Dear!
I have an error initializing PSQL shell, who can help me to solve it.
Please I require your attention, I need to start developing a project, apparently there is a hacker that is intervening in this process, I appreciate your investigation some research and answer.
Just to install the program, I got several errors without any common sense, I asked the Microsoft support team for help and in 5 minutes they solved the problem, it's very weird and odd. Apparently they have control of my personal computer.
I hope that you can pay due attention to these problems that do not allow me to advance in what I want to develop for my project. I hope you can find the person responsible for these abnormalities.
Thanks!

psql -h localhost -U postgres postgres
Note the username is postgres and the DBname is postgres (the last parameter).
I would even go so far as:
psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U postgres postgres
Because IPV6 might not be bound as expected.
This simply gets rid of the GUESSING of what PSQL might be trying to do. Like connecting to a different database, or logging in as a user that does not exist.
