Forget the sc delete it is now clear from the port check was is coursing the 443 error.
Go to xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-ssl.conf and find this:
Listen 443
Change to
Listen 4430
There is another 2 instances in this file that refer to port 443 that need to be changed to 4430 also.
Save and have another go.
