If the folder permissions were wrong, then every single attempt to
create or rename a log file would have failed, I'd think. It sounded to
me more like a few of the individual log files had wrong ownership or
permissions. If you ran initdb as Administrator then the
originally-created log file would have belonged to Administrator, but
the additional ones would have belonged to postgres --- that might
explain the behavior.
