The is probably due to not shutting down the application gracefully. The kafka services are still running due to this ...
Remove the temp folder and the kafka-data folder and do a restart..This worked for me..

Thanks for the response,
Removing the kafka-data folder solving the issue but lost kafka related data.
I have verified all the ports and killed processes but still removing the folder only solving the issue.

Hi, this solved my problem.
Or you can consider compressing the kafka-data folder first, and then decompress it after restarting.

You can change the node type by changing setenv.bat file which will be available at PRPCPersonalEdition\tomcat\bin

@vinodkumark same here. It crashed after an sudden computer shutdown and not using the proper Pega Shutdown shortcut.
Solution: remove all file in the following folders.
C:\PRPCPersonalEdition\tomcat\kafka-data
C:\PRPCPersonalEdition\tomcat\temp
Start the Pega application shorcut and will rebuit everything.
