go to command prompt administrator

run the command netstat -ano | findstr1883

then kill the process taskkill /F /PID 4464

The message implies that you are trying to reuse port 1883.

Best guess with so little to work with is that you already have an instance of mosquitto (or some other broker) running on the machine that is already bound to port 1883

The error message is one from Windows, so it probably means that mosquitto is running as a service
