PgAdmin in the latest version (4.28) doesn't start anymore, hangs in the loading screen and shows JavaScript errors in the browser console. What can I do?

The solution is simple although I don't really know why it occurs from that version on:
- Open the registry editor (Search for regedit.exe)
- Run it as administrator
- Navigate to
Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.js - Adjust
Content Typefromtext/plaintotext/javascript - Restart pgAdmin and it should work again.
- Maybe, you will have to clean your browser cache or restart your computer as well (Thanks to the Kassym and Bruce).
As already I said, I have no idea why or how this happens, maybe someone from the team can add this as a comment here and I will update my answer.

1Didn't need to restart the computer, but I did need to restart the pgAdmin server ("Shut down server" from the tray icon). – Mike Fisher Jan 13 '21 at 05:48
