    Hi
    Today I'm gonna show you how to download and install XAMPP on Windows PC
    ok lets start,

    Step 01.
    search in google for "Xampp download"
    now goto their official website->https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html
    now you can see available download for windows
    --> Get the Latest Version - currently it's 5.6.3
    ok its downloading......
    ok now download is completed...
    lets goto download folder and run the setup..
    make sure to run as administrator.....

    ok you might get this kind of warning msg . its better if you can pause your firwall for few mint..
    ok another mesg.. this is about UAC-"User Account controll settings."
    its better to chage your UAC to lower level . let's do this
    ok I'm having its ina better level to run this setup. just click ok

    Step 02.
    keep basic settings as it is. ... you can change if required. but i'll keep as it is

    NOW VERY IMPORTANT!! LOCATION OF YOUR FILES....
    I'm recomend you to change drive ..
    cos, if you install your programme in windows installation drive.. you will loose your all projects file if you format your PC... :(
    to avoid this install in a diff drive
    Create a new folder name "XAMPP" and proceed
    ok now installing....
    click finish to complete the setup

    ok now run the XAMPP (I'll run as admin)
    ok its working .. lets go to localhost...
    you will get this kind of a window.. select the lan. to continue.....
    its.. working :) !!!!!!

    Wait!!
    You might have trouble in starting apache server.. due to skype or firewall... dont worry we gonna fix this issue :)
    we have to change the port....
    apache default user port 80, and 443. we can change this to run this in a diff port like 88..
    goto XAMPP control panel-> under apache click "config"->goto->"Apache(httpd.conf)"


    search for "80" hit "ctrl+F" in keyboard search for "80"

    01. change this "Listen 80"=Listen 88
    02. search again, change "ServerName localhost:80"-> ServerName localhost:88
    (same number use in step 01)
    save the file and exit
    restart apache yes thats working..
    now in your browser you have to type "localhost:88/" to access localhost.. you cannot type "localhost" see!!


    ok done now if you use skype you might have trouble in staring Apache..
    lets change 443 port-> under Apache "Config"->"Apache(httpd-ssl.conf)"
    search for 443

    01. change this port
    Listen 443->"Listen 455"
    02. search again
    ServerName www.example.com:443-> ServerName www.example.com:445
    save the file and restart DONE !!!
    you can now run without and troubles!!!!
