Perl addon, mod_perl.so issues

[illegal3alien]

I tried to install the perl addon for XAMPP, but forgot to stop apache first. It didn't install right. I then opened the Perl addon installer and manually copied the folders to there correct destination. When I try to start apache, I get this error:

apache/modules/mod_perl.so Could not be found

Even though I checked, and it exists, how can I fix this, or reinstall perl?

Simply install again overwriting all files when/if asked then run the setup-xampp.bat file twice as per the addon readme file.
