Hello,

My pc crash, all i can do is get the DATA folder of postgresql.
What is the proper restoration procedure of DATA folder to newly
installed postgresql server (MSwindows).

TIA

Install pgsql, move data dir out of way, put old one in place, pray,
sacrifice chickens, start pgsql and see what happens.

Note that the praying and chicken sacrifice are optional...

Oh between install pg and move data dir you need to shut down the
pgsql service if it's up and running already.
