Using Xampp - Apache Port Problem

    So I installed Xampp. But I can't get Apache and MySQL to run in the xampp control panel because they're using Ports 80 and 443, which are being used by IIS.

    I looked online and I see that I have to change the ports used to 8080 or something besides 80. Then I have to restart Apache.

    I think I know how to change the Port, but I can't figure out how to restart Apache (and not getting anywhere with Google).

    Help?

    it's on localhost

    edit: Actually, the ports aren't even changing.

    I've been editing: C:\Program Files\xampp\apache\conf\httpd - changing Listen ports 80 to Listen 8080

    But when I check the ports in xampp control panel, it still says Apache 80

    apache usually only listens on 80.

    xampp is very buggy anyways. Suggest looking for another WAMPP

    Tried using Apache Monitor? Or restart it with command prompt?
