In some cases a second installation of ]po[ on a WIN machine might result into the following error (or similar):

Please go to your WINDOWS user management (CONTROL PANEL/USER ACCOUNTS), delete the Postgres user and try to install again.
If there's no user 'postgres', try opening a console and execute

If a former (de-) installation hadn't been completed, there might be still an entry in the WINDOWS registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPostgreSQL
