Here is the source of the Control Panel error - it HAS to be in the root folder of XAMPP:

viewtopic.php?f=16&t=44320

What folder did you install XAMPP in?

You should try using the newer version 3 control panel (xampp-control-3-beta.exe) in the xampp folder.

open localhost it shows opens a window written "it works!"
That should not happen on the Apache that comes with XAMPP. Did you install any other standalone Apache or other server bundle?
