Yesterday, I've worked on Xampp until evening; then, as I was about to shut down the computer, I have noticed "update and restart" instead of "update", so I've clicked on it and it took all evening.
This morning, I have try to open Xampp, but Apache won't start. Here's the main screen of the control panel:
12:34:56 PM [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
12:34:56 PM [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
12:34:56 PM [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.

12:34:56 PM [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
12:34:56 PM [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this

Here's what I get from error.log:

I've already changed the ports as mentioned online, with no success.
There was another tutorial suggesting to reinstall Xampp, but I had no backup of my work... Because I'm an average chick, apparently... I didn't even think of backing up my databases every weekend...
Therefore, since I do not have access to PHPMyAdmin, I've copied all of my files into another folder, before reinstalling Xampp, and I hope I can reinstall them.
Reinstalling Xampp has changed nothing, I still have the same problem.
I also want to add that I've never opened Skype on my computer; in theory, it shouldn't be activated.
Since the only thing that has changed since yesterday is the update, can it be the problem? And also, how can I resolve it?
Thank you very much in advance for taking the time to read this.
