Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.
Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of PostgreSQL 9.6.4 (32-bit).

What's new in this version:
Three security vulnerabilities have been closed by this release:
- CVE-2017-7546: Empty password accepted in some authentication methods

Bug Fixes and Improvements:
This update also fixes a number of bugs reported in the last few months. Some of these issues affect only version 9.6, but many affect all supported versions:
- pg_upgrade: corrected the documentation about the process for upgrading standby servers to ensure the primary and standbys synchronized safely. Also includes a fix to ensure the last WAL record does not have "wal_level = minimum" which would prevent standbys from connecting upon restart
- Fix for issue with a concurrent locking race condition that could cause some of the updates to fail
- Several fixes for low probability data corruption scenarios
- Fix to prevent crash when sorting more than one billion tuples in-memory
- Fix on Windows to retry creating a process if shared memory addresses could not be allocated, typically caused from antivirus software interference
- Fix in libpq to ensure that failed connection attempts using GSS/SASL and SSPI authentication are reset properly
- Fixes for SSL connection handling and logging
- Fix to allow window functions to be used in sub-SELECT statements that are within the arguments of an aggregate function
- Allow parallelism in the query plan when COPY when copying from a query
- Several fixes to ALTER TABLE
- Fix to ensure that ALTER USER ... SET and ALTER ROLE ... SET accepts the same syntax variants
- Fixes for the statistics collector, ensuring statistics requests made just after a postmaster shutdown request will be written to disk
- Fix possible creation of an invalid WAL segment during standby promotion
- Several walsender / walreceiver fixes, particularly around signal handling and shutdowns / restarts
- Several logic decoding fixes, including removing leakage of small subtransactions to disk
- Allow a CHECK constraints to be initially NOT VALID when executing CREATE FOREIGN TABLE
- Fixes to postgres_fdw for applying changes promptly after ALTER SERVER / ALTER USER MAPPING commands and improving ability to escape from an unresponsive server
- Several fixes for pg_dump and pg_restore, including a fix for pg_dump output to stdout on Windows
- Fix pg_basebackup output to stdout on Windows, similar to the fix for pg_dump
- Fix pg_rewind to correctly handle files exceeding 2GB, though files of such size should rarely appear in a data directory
- Several fixes for building PostgreSQL with Microsoft Visual C (MSVC), primarily around sourcing libraries
