Apache Error in Windows 10 [duplicate]

1

Well ... before upgrading to win 10, apache worked just fine with both WAMP, XAMMP, EasyPHP, etc. After upgrading to win 10 I open xammp, and when I start Apache, I get this error:

  

20:34:36 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
  20:34:36 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
  20:34:36 [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
  20:34:36 [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
  20:34:36 [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
  20:34:36 [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this
  20:34:36 [Apache] entire log window on the forums

As I realized by running EasyPHP, it says that port 80 is already being used by another application, but this is a system application, and can not finish,

How can I change this port 80, so that it works? or what do I have to do?

I found an answer in the stackoverflow .

One possible solution is that Windows 10 comes with a service called the World Wide Web Publishing Service and it ends up blocking port 80. If this is your case you should go to the windows service manager and stop it.

This problem can also happen with other programs like Skype, Teamviewer and others blocking the port. The idea is to try to figure out which application is causing the problem and stop it.

Another likely solution was to re-instantiate Visual C ++ Redistributable and then re-install WAMP / XAMPP.

I asked a question that looked like yours and I had a response that solves this problem:

What happens is that there is a service that is probably connected to IIS (express I believe) that is also a web server, it is by default enabled, to solve this without changing the default apache port, press winkey + R and type services .msc search for: World Wide Web Publishing Service and leave this service to be started manually.
