I just asked if you reinstalled anything - you figured correctly that it isn't required between using the trial and entering your code but that is what some users do. Did you now just reinstall PokerTracker 4 or did you do the same with PostgreSQL? Did you try deleting the postmaster.pid file as I suggested?
Locate and delete the postmaster.pid file if it is present (not "postmaster.opts" which may be there too). You can find that file in C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3\data\ although you may have a different PostgreSQL version (e.g. 8.4, 9.0) or have it installed in C:\Program Files (x86). Once it's deleted, reboot and see if PokerTracker 4 can now start. If not click your Windows Start button then type the following command:
services.msc
and click on it when it appears. Do you see the PostgreSQL service in the list? Is it started, or can you start it?
Open the Event Viewer (in the same way - if you type 'event' you should see it). In the top left section, expand "Windows Logs" and click on "Application". Do you see any recent errors in the top center section for PostgreSQL? If you do let us know what they say.
