Delete Database: 

 

1.      Navigate to Start > All Programs > PostgreSQL 8.x > pgAdmin III. Similarly, you can navigate to the .exe file by going to C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.2\bin\ and clicking on the pgAdmin3.exe file. The pgAdmin III screen should pop up.

2.      In the Object browser box, double click on PostgreSQL Database Server 8.x. You will be prompted you for your password. This is your password that you used when setting up PostgreSQL. Upon successful authentication, you will have access to your databases as shown in the following screen:

3.  Expand the Databases folder and select the applicable database (HoldemManager by default).

Note: You may see a popup window about database encoding and if so, click on Don’t show this tip again and just click OK.

4.      Right click on the database you wish to delete and select Delete/Drop.

The selected database is now deleted.
