postgres installation the database cluster initialization failed ( Postgresql Version 9.4.4 )

Question

I can't install Postgresql. I've tried everything:

• I run the setup as Administrator.
• I create a postgresql user an I add it to the Administrator group.
• I install it directly on C:\postgresql.

but without any success. for information: I have windows 8

Answer 1

• First of all run the set-up as administrator.
• Choose the installation folder inside program files( default)
• But chose your data location outside from above folder to somewhere else ( c:\postgres data or something.)
