Apache dont't start properly

Good Morning
Thanks for your support in advance. I have to say that I am not a technician, and I have installed Xammp in Windows 10 laptop as a first step in order to install Wordpress.
I thought it was plug & play, but I spent yesterday most of the day trying to start Apache. I read some articles in this forum and I try to solve the problem by my own: 1.- I access and run the Xammp control panel with administrator rights, 2.- I change port assignment in Skype program, 3.- I follow your recommendations on post "[Q&A] solving Port 80 in use by PID 4 (HTTP.sys) issue". doing the actions described in "Configure HTTP.sys to only bind to IPv6".

I don't know what can I do, the problem persist. The Xampp Control Panel v3.2.2 show me the following error this morning:

11:38:15 [Apache] Status change detected: stopped
11:38:15 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
11:38:15 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
11:38:15 [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
11:38:15 [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
11:38:15 [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
11:38:15 [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this
11:38:15 [Apache] entire log window on the forums

The Apache error log tell me the following:

Anyone could help me to fix the problem.

These messages are insufficient.

Open a CMD-Window (Terminal), change directory to c:/xampp and execute apache_start.bat. This *should* give a better error message.
