I tried running it as a local account, however it did not solve the problem of restarting the NiFi if it was shutdown unexpectedly.

You'll need run-nifi.bat to be run as a service, or be able to run when the user is not logged on. This answer from a user on serverfault.com has some in-depth instructions on how to set up running a batch file with the Task Scheduler.
