Hi everyone,
a customer reported an issue starting Postgres on his machine after
reinstalling Windows (10 before, 10 now) without formatting (so there's
Windows and Windows.old) because of Windows not starting up anymore.
Before this reinstallation everything was OK.
Now here's the log
2017-08-25 19:34:49 CEST LOG: database system was shut down at
2017-08-25 08:37:08 CEST
2017-08-25 19:34:49 CEST LOG: invalid magic number 0000 in log file 1,

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

PostgreSQL is 9.1.6 32-bit. (I know, EOLed, but it's hard to keep up to
date about 1000 customer machines!)
I know that's related to XLOG files, but do not have idea on how to deal
with it. I had a quick googling but found nothing but "your files are
corrupted. You'd better initdb." Then I bumped into this (old) post from

If it's applicable, is it still valid or too many things have changed?
Thanks in advance,
Moreno.
