Apache Service detected with wrong path
02:49:42 [Apache] Change XAMPP Apache and Control Panel settings or
02:49:42 [Apache] Uninstall/disable the other service manually first
02:49:42 [Apache] Found Path: "C:\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe" -k runservice
02:49:42 [Apache] Expected Path: "c:\xampp\apache\bin\httpd.exe" -k runservice

Seems like you have, or had another version of Apache installed, and it is in your Windows Path ahead of the XAMPP Apache version. Assuming this is the case, then either removing Apache24 (2.4?) version, or modifying your Path should do the trick.
