We have to use multiple xampp instance for many reasons. For example, difference PHP version.

you have to use difference port number for each xamp instance Instance #1 default port number is 80 change to 81. Instance #2 default port number is 80 change to 82.

DONT forget to change ssl port in apache\conf\extra\httpd-ssl.conf.

Instance #1 default is port number 80 change to 81, ssl default is 443 change to 444

Instance #2 default is port number 80, change to 82, ssl default is 443 change to 445, etc

You may also try the USB versions of XAMPP.

Give each instance a different port number. I am presently running two instances of Apache (ports 81 and 8080) and one of IIS (port 80). The Apache instances were installed by other products (Subversion, etc).
