once I click, i have version of PostgresSQL from 13.20 up to 17.4 .

I just want to make sure, since my PT4 ddbb and everything is working smooth and good, if it is worth it to update ? Will it improve anything? Will I run the risk to screw my ddbb if I update to the latest?? What would support recomend me ?


thanks for your help and time.
much appreciate it.

What version of PostgreSQL (NOT the version of PGAdmin) are you currently using?

how do I check the postgressql versioN? I can't find it

once I open PGADMIN 4
down below servers, I see PostgresSQL 12 that opens the databases (5) trees

If you were using an older version of PostgreSQL I would recommend upgrading but if you are using PostgreSQL v12 and everything is working fine then you can continue using that. PokerTracker v4.18 did add support for PostgreSQL v16 if you do want to upgrade and we have a guide for that here:

Guide: How to manually update PostgreSQL

but are there any advantages on it??

PostgreSQL v16 will have database performance improvements when compared to earlier versions. If you want to compare performance between the two in your case you can do a separate install of PostgreSQL v16 while keeping your existing v12 install & data.
