I'm using XAMPP, and I can start Apache, but, MySQL (phpMyAdmin) start!
When I start, I get this error;
10:07:49 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
10:07:49 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
10:07:49 [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
10:07:49 [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
10:07:49 [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
10:07:49 [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this
10:07:49 [Apache] entire log window on the forums
I search on it, and, change the port of Apache in Config -> Service and Port setting. I have;
Service name: Apache 2.4
Main port: 122
SSL port: 444
I also uninstall Skype (Windows 8/10/Metro version). Nothing is working. In the httpd.conf file I have;
Listen 122
ServerName localhost:122
I start it via apache_start.bat
and get;
(OS 10013)An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. : AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:445
(OS 10013)An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. : AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:445

Please note that all the log files don’t exists! Skype is uninstalled.
Update: 15th May, 2018:
The latest Windows 10 update (re-)activated the World Wide Web Publishing Service (in German: WWW-Publishingdienst). This might depend on the options you select during the configuration of the update you can make afterwards.
Update: 4th August, 2015:
If you have done clean installation of Windows 10, you may not have the Word Wide Web Publishing Service. In that case, simple WAMP/XAMPP installation should work fine.
If it doesn't, try installing Visual C++ Redistributable and then re-install WAMP/XAMPP.
I was facing a similar problem with WAMP. In Windows 10 TP, the Word Wide Web Publishing Service comes pre-installed. This is related to IIS and you can remove it if you don't need it.
This blocks the port 80
, making Apache act weirdly. You can do the following and try again.
This should make port 80 free and restarting WAMP/XAMPP should get you up and running!
There are other ways to do fix this. See Make WAMP Work On Windows 10.
