XAMPP, Apache server no longer works even after changing ports back

I have been using XAMPP for months now without any issues. But I wanted to change my ports so Skype would work while using XAMPP. Big mistake. I followed tutorials to change the ports correctly so this wouldn't happen. However after following the tutorial('s) the Apache server no longer works. So I thought: Well, okey no problem I'll just change them back to what they were (Port 80 and Port 433). But still Apache won't start and I'm out of ideas.

XAMPP SCREENSHOT

My Apache (httpd.conf)

Listen 80

ServerName localhost:80

My Apache (httpd-ssl.conf)

Listen 443

<VirtualHost _default_:443>

They are the same as before yet apache still won't run.

If you have any ideas of how I could fix this please let me know.

Thank you!

Have you pressed "the Logs button to view error logs and check the Windows Event Viewer for more clues"? – Eric Dahlvang
Yes, they didn't tell me mucht though. But I have fixed it myself by asking a friend to send me his entire conf folder and I replaced mine with that one. Now my Apache works agian. Thanks though :) – Kelvin

I have fixed this myself by asking a friend to send their entire conf folder. I replaced my own with that one and it appears apache is now working again.
