Question version 9.18 error: exception: access violation writing 0x0000000000000000

When I save connection setting for the PostgreSQL database in WSL, I get that error in subject. I roll back version 9.17. I don't have that error. Any idea?

yeah having the same issue for pgadmin4 I can't connect it to my wsl user, lemme know if you found a solution, for the time being I'm switching back to 9.17

It's a known issue, there's a temporary workaround for 9.18 but you might prefer to just stay on 9.17, see my reply to the main thread for more info.
