I am trying to install postgres and I first installed postgres then formated the partition that postgres was installed at and now i try to install on a new location. Anyways, it says I should enter the password for the postgres user but i use postgrespass and tried that (and tried blank) and it says its incorrect password.

I then opened user accounts and normally there is a postgres user there so I thought I could change the password there but there is just the Administrator user and no postgres.

So what can I do to proceed with the postgres installment?
