I have the "default" postgresql installed in C: using port 5432
I have installed a new postgresql version on a different partition using port 5433 and made a new database.
How can I switch to the old database?

There is no real easy way to switch between them.
You can either: create a new database on the port of the other database. Then you're able to switch to that database.
Or... close HM2. Stop the PostgreSQL server of the current database. Start HM2, so it will use the database on the other port.

Thanks.
Second solution is working.
Close HM2.
Open Control Panel -> Administrative tools -> Services and stop latest postgresql.
Open HM2 and it will say that can't connect to database and start a little tutorial to help you connect. Change the port and on the next step select use existing database. And is working. To go back to latest database repeat the process but stop the old postgresql and start the latest.
It is pretty easy but you should add that option to select database port in HM2 not only when can't connect to a database
Very few of our customers use multiple postgresql installations/ports so we wanted to keep the configuration options as simple as possible for the majority.
