Why does the exe file need Administrator privileges in that folder? It was suggested by XAMPP installation to use C:\xampp to avoid permission issues... now it has a permission issue?
I'm having the problem when I click "Quit" in XAMPP Control Panel v3.2.4... but it seems like this same issue has been happening across multiple versions.
After clicking to force close the app (which reports the error to Microsoft), the XAMPP Control Panel is ultimately closed, and then starting it again shows that Apache and MySQL are still running... I click Stop on both of them, which works fine... then click Quit again, and get the same errors!
So the problem is
specifically the Quit button... seemingly regardless of what's going on elsewhere in the interface.
Can someone explain what it's trying to do that Windows blocks access to? I'm a little concerned about things becoming corrupt, or XAMPP doing something weird that could be a security concern here (though updating its own config file shouldn't be a security concern, but requiring admin permission for it could be).
