Hi,

Try to change your service setting on administrator tools and disable secondary logon the error will disappear?, In that case, if you turn on secondary logon in service settings  and if it is disable, it prevents Postgre to install.  If you want to turn on to  secondary logon press Window key+R type "service. msc.  or you can click start>controlpanel>administrativetools> double click service>secondary logon>right click start>  properties>start up and type:automatic.  Secondary logon is for convenience because it enables administrators with ordinary user account to logon once than to log-on and off depending on the task involved.
