&gt; &gt; "pg_ctl register -w ...." the "-w" parameter was not put in
&gt; the registry "ImagePath"
&gt; &gt; value for the Postgres service. (I added it manually to test.) So I
&gt; &gt; suspect that "pg_ctl register" will need to be enhanced to add the
&gt; &gt; "-w" parameter to the registry settings.
