I shut down my xampp to take a lunch break and for some reason I cannot start it up again. When I try to launch MySQL it says the following:

13:13:19  [mysql]   Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly.
13:13:19  [mysql]   This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies, 
13:13:19  [mysql]   improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
13:13:19  [mysql]   Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
13:13:19  [mysql]   the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
13:13:19  [mysql]   If you need more help, copy and post this
13:13:19  [mysql]   entire log window on the forums

So I check the error logs:

    check this - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18022809/xampp-mysql-shutdown-unexpectedly – A R Nov 25 '20 at 12:25
  • Thanks for the answer. I couldnt find the answer myself as I was focused on the line "Plugin FEEDBACK is disabled" – Nemoko Nov 25 '20 at 12:29
  • Do you by any chance have another instance of MySQL server running? Maybe try changing ports? – A R Nov 25 '20 at 12:33
  • You already helped me with the article above :D – Nemoko Nov 25 '20 at 12:35

Thanks to A R I found the solution:

I had to stop MySQL, copy the data folder and remove the files that have the INFO File type.
