Summary

When exiting a program with log.Fatal, the program does not execute any deferred calls and will also exit immediately. For logging with the Windows event-logger interface, this means that the connection to the logger is not shut down gracefully and thus the final (and most important) log message is lost.

This PR does not use log.Fatal to log the message but rather rely on log.Print which allows for a graceful exit. Furthermore, we move the logging into the runApp function which really is the core processing loop.
