i cant find solution XAMPP AND WAMP WAMP is not worcking!!
If you are having so much trouble with XAMPP then use WAMP just like he said in the previous video
good video
@JohnnyClemenceed X = Cross-platform
@corpsenim WAMPP, I think it’s called, is for Windows. LAMPP is for Linux. I’m not sure what the “X” is for, perhaps Unix, but the functionality is all the same.
That XAMPP icon looks like a dog bone, but it’s got a nick in it. Is it intented to represent a bone of some sort, and why is in nicked? Otherwise, what is it supposed to be?
@nicoekkart Sometimes you’ll have to turn off your UAC for xamp.
Here’s the solution:
Start –> Run –> Type in “msconfig” –> Press ok
GoTo —> tools and find UAC aka User account control –> Launch and scroll to never notify.
And restart our system.
as suggested by @Musichkp
Also, if your having some issues and have been messing around with creating servers on your PC then check you have not got your Internet Information Services (IIS) feature turned on as this will interfere with your apache. This is likley if your port 80 is already in use.

@mauroprovatos
What’s your problem?
@Scientia96
Weird I made what you said step by step and apache still wont run.
it won’t let me swich apache on
@mattdoughboy Yes it will but remember that this software is just for testing out the website
@loko95ftp As long as you do not port forward you are good. But this software is just for testing your websites out, not actually host them.
