Hello I have exactely the same problem. Have just installed and run XAMPP v3.2.2 and I got this info from control panel:
09:23:55 [Apache] Attempting to start Apache app...
09:23:55 [Apache] Status change detected: running
09:23:56 [Apache] Status change detected: stopped
09:23:56 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
09:23:56 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,

09:23:56 [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
09:23:56 [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues

Hi,

Read this to get to know why v3.2.2 is not a valid XAMPP version number: [Q&A] Insufficient debug information - base information
Read this to get to know why your error report is insufficient: [Q&A] Insufficient debug information - Apache starting issue
