I've installed the latest versions of Ruby and PostGre with their respective installers.
The exact versions are:
- Ruby 3.0.2 with Devkit from: https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller2/releases/download/RubyInstaller-3.0.2-1/rubyinstaller-devkit-3.0.2-1-x64.exe
- PostGreSQL 13.3 from: https://www.enterprisedb.com/postgresql-tutorial-resources-training?cid=437 (which is the version the official page points to).
I've installed the PostGre gem with:
gem install pg -- --with-pg-dir="C:\path\to\PostGre" which installed the pg-1.2.3 gem successfully.
Yet when I do require 'pg' in IRB, I get an error message:

The main error seems to be the 'specified module cannot be found' (here in French, sorry). How can I fix this?
