I am new to PostgreSQL. I have to recover a database which was running in widows XP machine.
I have the zip folder of postgres.
I have extracted postgres installation in a different PC and started a using initDB and created a new database, I was able to login, but I am not able to see any old tables.
Would you please post the steps you have used to start server in another windows XP machine and how to recover tables and data in the old data folder?
