localhost/xampp/htdocs would request files in \xampp\htdocs\xampp\htdocs\
Is that the folder your website files are saved to?

Who told you that odd address? Did you read the FAQ?

My local files that I'm trying to access thru XAMPP in Chrome are stored on my hard drive at C:\xampp\htdocs
If I type localhost/xampp/htdocs in the address bar in Chrome, all I get are search engine results

http://localhost/ is already mapped to C:\xampp\htdocs
So adding xampp/htdocs/ in your url is simply wrong.
