 Windows 10 problems, PHP doesn't start (2 Replies, Read 8957 times)

I have installed Windows 10 (over Windows 7). I installed AMPPS but when I run it, Softaculous Control Center tells me Apache and MySQL have both started, but there's no mention of PHP. If I browse to localhost (127.0.0.1) the page is rendered blank.
I can't find any log files to tell me whether AMPPS attempted to start PHP and there are no error messages shown anywhere.
I made a file called index.html and put that in the www folder and that was also rendered blank.
Any help gratefully received.

It seems that PHP is never listed next to Apache and MySQL as having started. So that's that. It turns out that it's all screwy because of port 80.
Being the new OS on the block, there aren't any postings about how to solve this problem on Windows 10. Solutions for previous Windows concentrate on stopping other services from using port 80 but it isn't clear how to do this on W10.
One posting suggests opening a command prompt, typing:
netstat -aon | findstr 0.0:80
...then searching in Task Manager for the service using the resultant PID. But the service is called System (NT Kernel & System) on W10 and I have no idea whether I should (or how I could) be messing with this.

Ah-ha! It was Microsoft IIS that was hogging port 80.

Windows 10 users should open a command prompt (look in [windows-key][x])  and enter:

iisreset /stop

I hope this helps others.
