I used WAMP in the past without problem.

I needed to use skype for once, so I did and now the Apache service of WAMP won't start. When I test port 80 using the WAMP tools, I get this message:

***** Test which uses port 80 *****

===== Tested by command netstat filtered on port 80 =====


Test for TCP
Port 80 is not found associated with TCP protocol

Test for TCPv6
Port 80 is not found associated with TCP protocol

===== Tested by attempting to open a socket on port 80 =====

Your port 80 seems not actually used.
Unable to initiate a socket connection
Error number: 10061 -

I tried changing the port Skype uses, but this is not possible in the Windows 10 version. I installed Skype Classic and changed the port there, no result. Then changed Apache to port 8080, without result, so I changed it back to 80.

I fully uninstalled both Skype and Skype classic, then I uninstalled WAMP and installed it fresh again. Even after the removal of Skype and resinstallation of WAMP I still get the same error message.

I also tried to kill the tasks using port 80, but the only task I can actually kill is my firefox browser, result of netstat below.

C:\Windows\system32>netstat -aon | findstr :80

  TCP    192.168.178.27:49960   216.58.211.99:80       TIME_WAIT       0

Any help is appreciated.

  • I tried changing the port Skype uses, but this is not possible in the Windows 10 version, so it's not a duplicate of how to fix this in Windows 7. Btw, I solved the problem by reinstalling Windows.... – doobies Apr 09 '19 at 10:09
