'XAMPP - Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly / Blocked Port

I just installed Visual Studio 2022 Community . After that Xampp gives blocked port error.

Then I uninstall VS22 but still the same.

Error:

180718 12:43:04 [ERROR] Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port. Got error: 10048: Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted.
180718 12:43:04 [ERROR] Do you already have another mysqld server running on port: 445?
180718 12:43:04 [ERROR] Aborting

I checked connections and I don't know if it matters but doesn't have 3306 port.

enter image description here

I've tried to change ports in config files but still doesn't work .

It say your server is already running use on terminal C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqladmin" ?u root shutdown to shut it down thhen restart xammp

Instead, first try using the MySQL backup folder which is included with XAMPP. So do next steps:

  1. Rename folder mysql/data to mysql/data_old
  2. Make a copy of mysql/backup folder and name it as mysql/data
  3. Copy all your database folders from mysql/data_old into mysql/data (except mysql, performance_schema, and phpmyadmin folders)
  4. Copy mysql/data_old/ibdata1 file into mysql/data folder
  5. Start MySQL from XAMPP control panel
