    If you want to stop Apache you can do so multiple ways:

    From the command line (run cmd.exe):
    net stop Apache2.2
    httpd -k stop

    Or via Services Panel: run services.msc

    I use WampDeveloper Pro, not Xampp, but that error message (-1) from a Apache Service usually means the configuration is bad.

    You can run a syntax check on httpd.conf (and included files) with: httpd -t

    Check the error logs. You might get more detailed information regarding the error.
