This article will guide you to install PostgreSQL ODBC Driver 64bit on Windows 10. Some software rely on ODBC in order to communicate with the PostgreSQL server. The PostgreSQL driver does not available on Windows. So, we need to download and install it manually. There are few steps to do this.

Next, extract the file and then double click the .exe file. The installation wizard will open up. Follow the steps until finish.

April 18, 2023Hi!
Thank you for this tutorial. Any idea what I may be doing wrong? I installed the latest version 13.02, but it does not appear as an option in ODBC Data Source Administrator. I tried restarting my PC, but nothing.
The installation was successful and I see a bunch of .dll and .pdb files in the appropriate directory on C disk
