* New installation woes

I have just installed pgAdmin4 V9.9.1 on my Rocky Linux 9 laptop using dnf.
The install looked to be successful but when I fire up pgAdmin4 in 
either desktop or web mode, it wants an email address and password.
The installation did not include /usr/pgadmin4/bin/setup-pgadmin.sh and 
/usr/pgadmin4/bin/setup-web.sh did not create an account.
No known combination of email and password is accepted.

How do I get past square one?

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Did you have any existing installation? It will not setup again if there is
any existing config data available.

Hi Stephen,

Uninstall pgAdmin, look for /var/lib/pgadmin/ and /home/<user>/.pgadmin/
directories and remove them for a clean uninstall.
