Hello, i downloaded xampp and installed it, but when i try to start it, it just says "Starting Xampp..." and then I get error window telling me that "This application has failed to start because libapr-1.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." and the title of the window is "htt[d.exe - Unable to locate component". Reinstalling didn't fix anything. Any tips?

I'm having exaxtly the same problem.

The Apache error log is the following:
