I just did a windows install of postgresql. I cannot find or edit the postgresql.conf. This is a new Dell machine running XP Professional OS.
I chose not to install as a windows service, but as a job which I can start and stop.
Where should I look for help.
I have not installed without the service, but on my system there is a link to the postgresql.conf file right in the Start menu program group for PostgreSQL.
Is it easy to uninstall?
Yes, just go to the Add or Remove programs control panel.
Should I uninstall and then reinstall as a windows service?
Yes, it will likely make your life easier.
If I install as a windows service, is that reversable, or might it permanently change my computer in some undesirable fashion.
The uninstall process is designed to reverse everything done by the installer.
