Mine works. Uninstall any Anti Virus program you have and retry it.

Then make sure apps like Skype are not in use when you launch XAMPP.

If problem persists, uninstall and reinstall

I encountered the problem when I installed Xamp on my new pc. To solve the problem download and install the Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 up.
Follow the below link to Download and install

Please remember to restart your system after installation and my token

wwwmaster and RapportNaija thanks for your help but i figured out how to solve it by trial and error.

To any body having this problem in the future, what i did to solve it, is simply download the Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 via the link wwwmaster shared and install it, i had difficulties so after much research i discovered that 99% of the problem comes from either the OS in the computer is outdated so simply update your computer window and voila its done.

if you encounter any more problem then you need to research it and find the solution.
