Re: BUG #14940: Duplicated records inspite of primary key and unique constraint

1.  Yes, I have used pg_dump/pg_restore.

I am sure that the ~10 problematic records were added on PG 9.6.5. and
~40  were added on  PG 9.6.6., But I do not know when they were duplicated.

2.  I have downloaded MS Win version from
https://www.enterprisedb.com/downloads/postgres-postgresql-downloads#windows
