⚠️ Important Notice Before Software Installation

Please read this carefully before proceeding.

  • Installing or reinstalling PostgreSQL on a machine that already has an existing PostgreSQL installation may overwrite or corrupt existing databases.
  • If you have an existing PostgreSQL database, make sure you have created a backup (.backup file) using pgAdmin before continuing.
  • Store your backup safely in a separate folder (recommended: C:\Backup).
  • Only continue when your backup is confirmed and verified.

Step 1 : Create a .backup File Using pgAdmin

Purpose: Export your previous (legacy) database used until now from the older PostgreSQL system.

  • On your legacy machine, open pgAdmin 4
  • Right-click your previous (legacy) database → Backup…
  • Click the folder icon on the right side of the filename field
  • Change the "Save as type" to .Backup
  • Save as C:\omnicheck\Legacy\Your_legacydbname.backup
  • Click Backup and wait for confirmation
