I tried this, but nothing appears to happen when entering the commands. Attached is a screenshot of the shell window - what am I doing wrong?


those are system shell commands, not psql sql commands. catch-22, in the windows environment, postgresql's command tools probably aren't in the path, so to execute the above commands try this...

    start -> run -> *CMD* <enter>

(or, click on an 'Command Prompt' shortcut).

    C:\Users\YourName>***path "c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.4\bin";%path%*
C:\Users\YourName>*pg_dump -Fc -p 5432 */<dbname>/*| pg_restore -p 5532*

if your postgres is installed somewhere else, replace "c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.4\bin" in the PATH command with its actual location \bin ....
