Unable to start PostgreSQL 17.0 after installation on Mac

I recently downloaded PostgreSQL on Mac and after successful installation when I start pgAdmin 4, it is giving me this error

"_LSOpenURLsWithCompletionHandler() failed with error -10669". Screenshot of the error is also attached here.

I downloaded the Mac version 17.0 from this website: https://www.enterprisedb.com/downloads/postgres-postgresql-downloads

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling but didn’t work. Need to know how to fix this.

    I had the same problem. Does your Mac have Intel processor or Apple Silicon (M series)?

    If you have Intel processor, you don’t need to do anything. PostgreSQL should work fine, since it’s built for Intel processors.

    If you have Apple Silicon, e.g. M3, you need to install Rosetta. You can check this Reddit link if you need help.

    Had the same issue in a macbook with M1 chip, tried a few suggestions from the community but what solved my issue was install from brew:

    brew install --cask pgadmin4 --verbose

    Hope that works for you!
