MySQL shutdown unexpectedly XAMPP - Wordpress

Question

I am running xampp on Windows 10. I've never had such an issue with my other websites running on XAMPP. To break down the issue, I am installing clean wordpress I am importing my website with a plugin called All in one WP migration. Once the migration is done I have access to the wp-admin part of the website but when I try to open the website I receive this error:

12:48:26 PM  [mysql]    Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly.
12:48:26 PM  [mysql]    This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies, 
12:48:26 PM  [mysql]    improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
12:48:26 PM  [mysql]    Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
12:48:26 PM  [mysql]    the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
12:48:26 PM  [mysql]    If you need more help, copy and post this
12:48:26 PM  [mysql]    entire log window on the forums

As a reference all the other wordpress insllations I have, run perfect and I have no problem opening the websites. When I open phpmyadmin I see this error:

#1932 - Table 'phpmyadmin.pma__userconfig' doesn't exist in engine

I have tried all the listed solutions in this thread: MySQL error - #1932 - Table 'phpmyadmin.pma user config' doesn't exist in engine

Unfortunately none of them seems to work for me and MySQL still crashing. Is there something else I can try.

When I open the respective database I have in phpmyadmin I see these errors as well

SQL query: Copy DocumentationEdit Edit


SELECT MAX(version) FROM `phpmyadmin`.`pma__tracking` WHERE `db_name` = 'fabb'  AND `table_name` = 'wp_addonlibrary_addons'
MySQL said: Documentation

#1932 - Table 'phpmyadmin.pma__tracking' doesn't exist in engine

 # Example MySQL config file for small systems.
#
# This is for a system with little memory (<= 64M) where MySQL is only used
# from time to time and it's important that the mysqld daemon
# doesn't use much resources.
#
# You can copy this file to
# D:/xampp/mysql/bin/my.cnf to set global options,
# mysql-data-dir/my.cnf to set server-specific options (in this
# installation this directory is D:/xampp/mysql/data) or
# ~/.my.cnf to set user-specific options.
#
# In this file, you can use all long options that a program supports.
# If you want to know which options a program supports, run the program
# with the "--help" option.

# The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients
[client] 
# password       = your_password 
port            = 3306 
socket          = "D:/xampp/mysql/mysql.sock"

# Don't listen on a TCP/IP port at all. This can be a security enhancement,
# if all processes that need to connect to mysqld run on the same host.
# All interaction with mysqld must be made via Unix sockets or named pipes.
# Note that using this option without enabling named pipes on Windows
# (via the "enable-named-pipe" option) will render mysqld useless!

# Replication Master Server (default)
# binary logging is required for replication
# log-bin deactivated by default since XAMPP 1.4.11
#log-bin=mysql-bin

# required unique id between 1 and 2^32 - 1
# defaults to 1 if master-host is not set
# but will not function as a master if omitted
server-id   = 1

# Replication Slave (comment out master section to use this)
#
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between
# two methods :
#
# 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -
#    the syntax is:
#
#    CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=<host>, MASTER_PORT=<port>,
#    MASTER_USER=<user>, MASTER_PASSWORD=<password> ;
#
#    where you replace <host>, <user>, <password> by quoted strings and
#    <port> by the master's port number (3306 by default).
#
#    Example:
#
#    CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
#    MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
#
# OR
#
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
#    start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
#    if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
#    connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
#    change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and
#    overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
#    the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
#    For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched
#    (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)
#
# required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1
# (and different from the master)
# defaults to 2 if master-host is set
# but will not function as a slave if omitted
#server-id       = 2
#
# The replication master for this slave - required
#master-host     =   <hostname>
#
# The username the slave will use for authentication when connecting
# to the master - required
#master-user     =   <username>
#
# The password the slave will authenticate with when connecting to
# the master - required
#master-password =   <password>
#
# The port the master is listening on.
# optional - defaults to 3306
#master-port     =  <port>
#
# binary logging - not required for slaves, but recommended
