I've gone into the folder xammp > apache > conf > httpd.conf and tried to edit the following lines:
Listen 80 ServerName localhost: 80
to
Listen 8080 ServerName localhost: 8080
but I'm still getting this error:
Port 443 in use by "C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" with PID 13872!
Ideas? Should I uninstall Skype?
