I installed Xampp couple months ago. After i install it i've changed my port to 7777 and it runs smoothly without any problem. But couple days ago i download laravel into my computer and somehow i can't start my apache. It says port 80 is being used

i've changed the port on httpd.conf and i've tried to stop World Wide Web Publishing Service . Does anyone have a solution for this?
