   When the installer starts, the first window pops up, after which it closes
   and an error pops up after a couple of seconds:
   *******************************************************************
   
   There has been an error. A debug file has been created at:
   
   C:/Users/D!5}/AppData/Local/Temp/installbuilder_debug_1444.xml
   
   Please attach it to any bug report.

   Hello,
   
   I tried the PostgreSQL 17 RC1 on Windows 11 x86_64, and it's working fine.
   Before installation please make sure following pre-req
   
   1. Your logon user follow the standard naming conventions
   https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/customize/desktop/unattend/microsoft-windows-shell-setup-autologon-username
   2. All the required system updates applied.
   3. Installer supported on 64-bit architecture.
   
   
   Regards,
   Zaid
