This nice little GUI contains at a glance all the information one could require to investigate port use with the additional features of being able to manipulate via the File menu the processes plus the ability to close a selected TCP connection if required for testing an XAMPP installation error.
I also like the ability of it to flexibly refresh at varying intervals set by a config setting, then you can spot opening and closing of ports by various processes in real time.
I have found that a GUI is preferable to most Windows users over a command console program like netstat.exe for example, which is now thankfully in a GUI form in the XAMPP Control Panel V3, but netstat has a limited function capability over the more comprehensive Curr Ports utility for those seeking explicit information about a port and it's user.
Remember that cports.exe file (Curr Ports) was called upon for 'ports in use' in previous versions of XAMPP in the included xampp-portcheck.exe utility.
Thanks for the log file fix, I will download and test - what was the problem?
Best wishes.
