XAMPP, Apache - Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly

Today morning i got this error after installing Skype in my windows. I do not use Skype so i had not installed it earlier. So after Skype installation i got this problem. This happens because Skype by default use same port that Apache uses.

error shows like this:


16:50:25 [Apache] Status change detected: running 16:50:26 [Apache] Status change detected: stopped 16:50:26 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly. 16:50:26 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies, 16:50:26 [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method. 16:50:26 [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check 16:50:26 [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues 16:50:26 [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this 16:50:26 [Apache] entire log window on the forums

Now go to Skype
Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Connection.
Disable the "Use port 80 and 443 for alternatives for incoming connections"
Sign out Skype and restart it.
