I'm running Xampp v3.3.0 on windows 10, I recently had a reset and reinstall of my PC and also my xampp. Now, anytime I try to start the appache service, I get this...
03:35:40 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
03:35:40 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port,

I've gotten answers that involve changing port 80 and others, done that and restarted my PC and apache to no avail..It still won't start
Try this:
Run cmd as an administrator
Navigate to xampp/apache/bin
Type httpd -t
That will check the validity of your apache config file.

How can I solve this?
Before it says the port is blocked, so I change the default port and this wor, partially because this come out. I tried with this method but it doesn't work
I am new to php and I have encountered this problem directly after a complete new installation on Windows. I do not have Skype on the device.
When I try to start my Apache in the XAMPP Control Panel, I get the following errors:

I have checked through the Netstat panel and port 80 and 443 is not used.
Netstat
For safety, I still tried to change the port but it didn't work. I do try to stop the services on port 80 by issuing
net stop http
but it didn't work too. Stop Services
I do try to execute xampp_start.exe but it didn't show any info about the issue. Then I try to issue the command
apache_start.bat
in the shell panel but it showed nothing too.
Shell
I do have VMWare and Kaspersky in my device. I tried to close the VMWare and Workstation in the services.exe but it seems doesn't work.
How do I solve this? Since I am new any help is appreciated.

Please note that Skype is not running, and i even tried changing the port to 81 by editing httpd.conf. Still I have unchecked "use port 80 and 443 or additional incoming connections"
After changing port number to 81 I went to Command prompt and used command
netstat -nab
I did not get any applications using port 81. I'm done restarting XAMPP and my computer.
Have you tried changing the port using the Xampp Control Panel?
Bitnami developer here.
It seems related to a blocked port. Try to change from the XAMPP Control Panel the both http and https ports in all the Apache configuration files.
To do that, press Config on the Apache section, and change the ports in httpd.conf and httpd-ssl.conf
You need also change the service port: Config (button on the right corner) -> Service and Ports Settings.
Click Netstat button if you want to see the currently used ports.
I hope it helps

I installed XAMPP and for some reason when I start running Apache, it doesn't run. I'm not using Skype and also changed the port from 80 to 8080,7777. But nothing seems to work.
Also when I try opening the logs, they are empty.
The detailed error which I get is as follows

Please someone help
Well,somehow resinstalling XAMPP worked for me.
Be sure to install (or unzip) the xampp folder to the root directory (C:\). It helped me even when Skype was listening on the same port apache still would boot up.
Than it is good practise to change http port and ssl port to some different number up to 65535. You have to change it in 3 steps:
1) In Config Panel -> Service and Port Settings -> Main Port & SSL Port
2) Apache (httpd.conf)
3) Apache (httpd-ssl.conf)
Please note, I'm a newb so bear with me if this is just a stupid mistake.
I have XAMPP on my Win 7 laptop, no IIS, no extra MySQL stuff. However, everytime I click start for the apache module this comes up.

Skype and VMWare is disconnected, nothing in Error log or Windows Event Viewer, and as far as I know, port 80 is free
Any advice would be most welcome.
Many thanks
EDIT: thanks for the answer. Turns out the Web Deploy Service issued with Microsoft WebMatrix was to blame. Many thanks.
From the error log, it is obvious that port 80 is opened
Open a CMD prompt and type in command: net stop was /y
Run Dialog Box (press keys Win+R) .. then type: services.msc
I then scrolled down to: World Wide Web Publishing Service Double clicked on it and clicked STOP (if this service status is Started)
Start Apache again with XAMPP :)
