      open services (services.msc) and check which user the service has
      been registered to ( default name is postgres ).
      <br>
      Is this really the VERY same user used for the old instance?
      <br>
      If not he has a different ID and has to be given the necessary
      file permissions:
      <br>
      <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Running_%26_Installing_PostgreSQL_On_Native_Windows#What_filesystem_...;
      <br>
      <br>
      The owner of the service should be a local user and not member of
      a domain.
      <br>
      <br>
      And you should really check Windows' event log for the error
      messages during service startup.
      <br>
      <br>
      Good luck!

        the Server-Service&nbsp; worked after reinstalling PostgreSQL
        correctly.
        <br>
        But after copying back the backup of the folder *data*, the
        <br>
        Server-Service does not work anymore.
        <br>
        What i did:
        <br>
        <br>
        &nbsp; * Term the Server-Service
        <br>
        &nbsp; * Copying back the backup of the folder *data*
        <br>
        &nbsp; * Starting the Server-Service (whitch did not)
        <br>
        <br>
        So, i assume copying back the folder *data* is not enought.
        Something is
        <br>
        missing from the backup ?
        <br>
        <br>
        Do you have any tips for me, thanks,
        <br>

          Look into the Windows event log for more info.
          <br>
          I guess you also recreated the Windows user postgres so that
          the file
          <br>
          privileges are wrong.
          <br>
          IIRC there's a batch file for setting the correct file
          privileges (
          <br>
          don't recall the name) within the PostgreSQL installation
          folder.
          <br>
          Beware - if you specify the wrong path you might not be able
          to start
          <br>
          Windows again!!!!
          <br>
          <br>
          Good luck ...
