Here are the results of a quick test on a windows machine:

L:\Projects\Postgres\install\bin>echo test > c:\windows\test.txt
Access is denied.

L:\Projects\Postgres\install\bin>cat ../data/postgresql.conf | grep "port = "
port = 543                              # (change requires restart)

L:\Projects\Postgres\install\bin>psql -p 543 postgres
psql (11.5)
WARNING: Console code page (850) differs from Windows code page (1252)
         8-bit characters might not work correctly. See psql reference
         page "Notes for Windows users" for details.
