Hi,
i installed Xampp on my computer with Windows 7 as operating system and i'm the administrator.
Without a restart i can use the whole Xampp functions.
But after a restart i've no access authorization to open the Xampp control panel or the folder C:/xampp.

Things, i tried to solve this problem:
i changed port 80 to port 81 because there were other threads where i got the information to do this.
I tried to open Xampp Control panel as administrator -> fail.
I tried to unlock the folder with programmes like unlocker but it doesn't work.

Does somebody know what to do in this case?
Thank you very much!

I tried to open Xampp Control panel as administrator

what is the exact error you get?

Changing the port is probably not relevant to this issue

If i want to start the control panel, following error: To the specified device, path or file or can not be accessed. You may not have sufficient privileges to access the element.

OK -

Did you copy the Control Panel onto your desktop???
