Should have mentioned earlier, version 8.4 went EOL about three and half
years ago:

Probably should look at upgrading to a newer version sooner rather then
later.

On Feb 12, 2018 about 2 PM after computer was restarted, pg_log file

The log event on Friday, appears to have recorded a forced shutdown -
Windows 10 update install, maybe? No one at business to record what may
have happened.
On Monday afternoon, postgres service refused to Start as indicated in
that day's log event.
Any ideas as to what might have happened, or caused this anomaly? It's
almost as if some Environment Variables were missing, or scrambled. I
don't think Postgresql uses the Windows Registry, in place of EV's, does
it?
