The database is not just a file you can move to another folder. Its managed by a postgresql server process and its a very critical process to move an existing database to a new folder or partition: http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/368/Move+Database+to+Another+Hard+Drive+or+Partition

If you have read that FAQ article - you can notice moving database is actually moving Data folder.
To find out where this Data folder is located - open Control panel - Administrative tools - Services
Find Postgres server in list, right-click - properties.
See "Path to executable" - this is a long string which contains also path to Data folder - but string usually do not fits in Properties window
to see it - put cursor in that string (just click mouse there), then press END button on keyboard
this will bring you to the end of that long string - see path to Data
